Scientific paper

The IRAC Deep survey is the major IRAC GTO science program. The primary objective of this program is to study the formation and evolution of normal galaxies to redshifts z>3. Identifying the initial epoch of galaxy formation and understanding the evolution of the galactic star formation rate as a function of redshift are two of the most important goals of observational astronomy. We select the Groth strip as our survey field which is also a survey field for the DEEP project, an ultra deep redshift survey project using Keck telescopes. The depth of the survey will be 6 uJy for 10sigma at the 8um band. This survey will cover 10'X2 deg area. This coverage will allow us to construct a luminosity function for L_* galaxies at z=3.
