Scientific paper

Narrow-band spectrophotometric observations between 2 and 4 microns are presented of 21 T Tau and early-type young stars. Virtually all the stars are characterized by smooth featureless continua. The extremely young star HL Tau has an absorption feature centered at 3.1 microns which is well matched by extinction from 30 micrograms/sq cm of pure ice. Particle radii are less than about 0.3 micron. FU Ori and V1057 Cyg show absorptions due to water vapor near 2 microns.
