Summary
We present the preliminary results of a systematic study intended for monitoring the photometric variations in the near IR ((1 ÷ 10) μm), exhibited by young sources responsible of considerable mass loss traced by Herbig-Haro (HH) objects, which are condensation of matter excited by interaction between the stellar wind and the circumstellar environment. Comparing the observed spectral shape variations with those predicted by models, positive indications in favour of accretion phenomena occurring in disks can be derived.
