Study of Sources in AFGL Rocket Infrared Study.

Abstract

The observation program reported here had the following goals: (1) to identify AFGL sources to test the reliability of the Catalogue as a list of infrared sources; (2) to measure the infrared energy distribution of these sources to test the reliability of the Catalogue magnitudes; (3) to assess the effects of variability on magnitude intercomparison; and (4) to classify the sources so that the content of the Catalogue could be used as an unbiased sample of infrared sources.
