Scientific paper

We present far-infrared images of the Virgo cluster taken with MIPS onboard Spitzer. The images, taken at 2 4, 70, and 160 micron, cover a field of more than 30 square degrees. A cross-correlation with known galaxy members as well as with optical and near-infrared images is presented. From known spectroscopic and photometric
redshifts, we obtain the infrared luminosity function for Virgo down to 1041 erg/s, more than one magnitude deeper than the best observed clusters
with Spitzer.
