Ice band in IRAS 09371 + 1212

Spectra from 2 to 4 microns of the unusual IRAS source 09371 + 1212, a bipolar nebula, reveal a deep H/sub 2/O ice absorption band near 3.1 microns. No long-wavelength wing is present, implying that the absorbing grain mantles are of high purity. The structure of the absorption feature is reasonably well modeled by a mixture of amorphous and crystalline H/sub 2/O ice mantles on silicate grains, but discrepancies remain that could indicate other absorbers also. 17 references.
