Abstract

Using data obtained with the IRAS and groundbased telescopes, the spectral energy distribution of the pre-main sequence stars HD 176386, TY CrA, R CrA and T CrA were constructed and analysed. For all stars two possible models, one based on a normal extinction law and another one with an extinction law characterized by R > 3.1 are considered. Only the latter model turns out to be acceptable. HD 176386 and TY CrA have excess radiation in the far infrared only. This excess is caused by rather cool dust (T ∼ 95 K) located at quite a distance from the central star (up to about 1000 AU)
