| contents | A sample of SiO-masing late-type stars located in the inner Galaxy is analyzed with the goal of better constraining their obscuration. This reference sample allows us to define mathematical relations between their dereddened infrared colours and the observed colours (e.g. \Ks-[8], \Ks-[24]). The derived equations define a property (a locus) of these late-type stars. Therefore, they enable us to derive the interstellar extinction. With estimated spectral types, it is possible to decompose the total extinction in the two components (interstellar and envelope extinction). These relations are very useful to classify extremely obscured late-type stars located in the inner Galaxy. Estimating the two extinction components is performable on an individual late-type star, independently of its surrounding, and also when a few mid-infrared measurements are available. |
