Scientific paper

We propose deep and wide-field IRAC and MIPS imaging of three galaxy clusters at 1.2 < z< 1.4. The IRAC data will be used to measure the faint-end of the infrared luminosity function, four magnitudes fainter than M*. We will combine the deep Spitzer data with existing optical data to make the first measurement of the stellar mass function in high-redshift cluster galaxies. The MIPS 24 micron data will be used for quantifying the dusty star formation rate and AGN activity as a function of radius from the cluster center. A key component of this proposal is the 10 x 10 arcminute field of view (5 x 5 Mpc at the clusters' redshift). By extending into the cluster 'infall' region, we will probe the region where the majority of 24 micron sources are expected to lie.
