Scientific paper

We present results from our NOAO Large Survey using NEWFIRM to image the Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey (SDWFS) region. This program is designed to enable a broad variety of investigations, ranging from detecting the first generation of galaxy clusters, to finding low-mass brown dwarfs, to facilitating measurement of the diffuse infrared background from primordial galaxies. The combination of deep JHKs imaging from NEWFIRM with existing deep optical (NDWFS) and IRAC (SDWFS) imaging over the full 8.5 sq. degree field enables robust photometric redshifts for L* galaxies to zɯ and color selection of faint, red sources. All data are now acquired and processed. Here we present initial science results and details of the public data release.
