Abstract: | The star LSS 3027, embedded in a parabolic-shaped dark nebula, and several stars in its vicinity, were observed photometrically and spectroscopically to investigate whether they are candidates of very young Herbig Ae/Be stars. Only the star LSS 3027B is without doubt a very good candidate. Its H -emission is very strong, indicating an extended atmosphere around the star, and its near- and far-infrared spectral energy distributions exhibit a strong excess radiation, which most probably is caused by a thick dust shell in the close environment of the star. The ratio of total to selective extinction is found to be equal toR-5.1. It can be shown that it is embedded in the dark cloud mentioned above. From its properties we believe that the remarkable object LSS 3027B is a typical Hergig Be pre-Main-Sequence object.Based on data obtained at the ESO, La Silla, Chile and with the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS). |
