Abstract

The authors report infrared positions and multicolor infrared photometry for a sample of type II OH/IR stars. The infrared colors and 11.4 μm silicate optical depths of the confirmed sources in this group increase as a function of distance, suggesting that interstellar reddening must be taken into account in assessing their infrared energy distributions and physical characteristics.
