Abstract

We investigate models for the IRAS LRS)Low Resolution Spectra) of OH/IR stars. OH/IR stars often show the silicate features at 9.7 ${mu}m$ and $18{mu}m$ in the spectra obtained by the IRAS LRS as well as remarkably red values in the IRAS photometric colors such as [60]-[25] and [25]-[12]. We compare the radiative transfer model results with observed spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of the stars including IRAS PSC(Point Source Catalog), IRAS LRS and ground based observational data.
