Spitzer photometry

Spitzer zero points
Wavelength Zeropoint (Jy)
IRAC 3.6 280.9
IRAC 4.5 179.7
IRAC 5.8 115.0
IRAC 8.0 64.9
MIPS 24 7.17

To convert between magnitudes and flux density in Jy, use Equation 2 from: http://coolwiki.ipac.caltech.edu/index.php/Units F(Vega) is the zero-point flux listed in the table above.
