Scientific paper

A number of Wolf-Rayet stars have been found to show in their spectra a strong emission feature at 3.28 microns, the wavelength of the unidentified feature observed in some nebular spectra. From comparison of the strength of this line from stars of different spectral type and excitation, it is identified with the C IV (11-10) transition group and shown not to be connected with the circumstellar dust associated with some Wolf-Rayet stars.
