Scientific paper

Photometric and spectrophotometric data in the range between 1 and 20 microns of four southern IR sources associated with OH maser emission are presented and interpreted in terms of a radiative transfer model. Such parameters as gas densities, dust mass loss rates, luminosities and OH pumping efficiencies are derived. Combined infrared and radio data suggest that both type I and type II OH sources can be radiatively pumped by infrared photons emitted by dust grains.
