Search for Variability in Near Infrared Fluxes of Peculiar Emission-Line Objects

Abstract

Thirty-five peculiar emission line objects (essentially B[e] stars) were observed at J(1.2 μ), H(1.6 μ), K(2.2 μ), L(3.5 μ), and M(4.8 μ) at the E.S.O. 1 m telescope where the photometer is equipped with an InSb detector. The results of the observations performed during several nights and days in Feb. 1979 and March 1980 are listed in Table 1.
