Scientific paper

Spectra of PV Cephei from 2 to 4 microns reveal a moderately strong 3 micron ice-absorption feature. Normally seen in objects with high visual obscuration, A(V) greater than 10, this absorption in an object with A(V) = 3.5-5.0 suggests the existence of a dense circumstellar disk. This paper discusses the evidence for a disk from this data and other wavelength regions, the possible origin of the 3-micron feature in PV Cephei, and the relationship between this object and other young stellar objects.
