We have identified a complete, flux-limited (S 160>120 mJy) sample of 160 μm selected sources from Spitzer observations of the 1 deg2 Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) Deep Field region in the Lockman Hole (LH). Ground-based UV, optical, and near-infrared (NIR) photometry and optical spectroscopy have been used to determine colors, redshifts, and masses for the complete sample of 40 galaxies. Spitzer-IRAC+MIPS photometry, supplemented by ISOPHOT data at 90 μm and 170 μm, has been used to calculate accurate total infrared luminosities, L IR(8-1000 μm), and to determine the IR luminosity function (LF) of …
