Abstract:
    We discuss H-band (1.65{mu}m) near-infrared photometry of the central
    9h^-2^Mpc^2^ of Abell 1644 (A1644) to a limiting M_H_~M*_H_+3
    (throughout this paper H_0_=100h*km/s/Mpc). here are 861 galaxies in
    the photometric survey region. We also measured radial velocities of
    155 galaxies; 141 of these are cluster members within 2.44h^-1^Mpc of
    the cluster center.
