Scientific paper

We propose to obtain IRS 16 um peak-up imaging of 15 well-studied, Spitzer-selected, massive galaxy clusters at 1.1 < z < 1.4. These observations will provide mid-IR photometry for 200-300 cluster members, including a minimum of 40 spectroscopically confirmed cluster members. In combination with 24 um data awarded in cycle GO-3, these data will allow us to identify and study those IR luminous cluster galaxies powered primarily by star formation. Together with extensive, ongoing z > 1 spectroscopy and ground- and space-based multiwavelength imaging, these 16 um data will allow us to measure the contribution of cluster ULIRGs and LIRGs to the buildup of stellar mass in the Universe.
