Abstract

As part of a program to search for the near infrared counterparts to the far infrared sources discovered by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) we have scanned two areas including the IRAS error boxes for the sources IRAS 0453+444 and IRAS 1717-087 at 2.2 μm down to the flux density limit of ∼1 Jy. Results on the IRAS sources and the detection of two new bright near infrared sources are reported and discussed.
