Description
In a previous work (Paper I, Kumar & Grave, 2007A&A...472..155K) a sample of 380 HMPO targets was studied using the GLIMPSE point source catalog and images. A colour-magnitude analysis of the point sources resulted in the identification of infrared counterparts (IRC) of the (sub)mm cores of HMPO candidates which were considered bona fide targets. We aim to estimate and analyse the physical properties of the infrared counterparts of HMPOs by comparing their spectral energy distributions (SED) with those predicted by radiative transfer accretion models of YSOs.
