Scientific paper

We have chosen three regions of the sky for which the CIRB has been determined at 3.5 microns using the "DIRBE minus 2MASS" method of Wright (2001). For each of these regions we have obtained 270 seconds of integration time with IRAC on Spitzer over the central square degree. We present galaxy counts in each of these 1 square degree IRAC surveys. And thus we are also able to compare the galactic content of each region with the "DIRBE minus 2MASS" determined L-Band CIRB.
This work is based on observations made with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which is operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology under a contract with NASA. Support for this work was provided by NASA through an award issued by JPL/Caltech.
