The C-classification and infrared color of carbon stars.
Abstract
It is shown that the large scatter found in the color-temperature plots of carbon stars deduced from the infrared color versus C-type relation can be interpreted in terms of the blocking effect due to absorption bands of CN and in terms of interstellar reddening.
