Scientific paper

We have obtained infrared colors and limiting magnitudes from 1.25-4.8 micrometers for a sample of 26 of the cm continuum radio sources located in the core of the rho Oph molecular cloud. Their colors demonstrate that the majority of the sources appear to be heavily reddened objects surrounded by circumstellar accretion disks. In these cases the radio emission most likely diagnoses accretion driven energetic outflow phenomena: either ionized winds or possibly synchrotron emission from shocked gas associated with stellar jets.
