Clusters of Galaxies at 1 < z < 2 : The Spitzer Adaptation of the Red-Sequence Cluster Survey

摘要: As the densest galaxy environments in universe, clusters are vital to our understanding of role that environment plays formation and evolution. Unfortunately, evolution high-redshift cluster galaxies is poorly understood because ``cluster desert'' exists at 1 2 quiescent population z < 1. The existing seven-passband Spitzer data (3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8.0, 24, 70, 160 micron) will allow us make first measurements red-sequence, IR luminosity function, mid-IR dust-obscured star-formation rate for clusters.
