Finding the cluster members
Spitzer is so sensitive that it easily sees things at the far reaches of the Universe with only a few seconds' integration. When studying clusters of stars, not just with Spitzer, one of the first major goals is to figure out which objects are truly cluster members and which are not. This pdf file has a discussion of how to find members of young clusters in general.
Working specifically with IC 2118
Many of the tools and techniques developed for IC 2118 will work in any other star-forming region observed with Spitzer. Here are some things pertaining specifically to the IC 2118 region.
