VLT/ISAAC and AKARI/IRC 2.5–5 μm spectra of embedded high-mass YSOs in the LMC. The blue circles connected by thick lines represent the VLT L-band spectra obtained in this work. The red circles connected by thin lines represent the AKARI spectra (the original data taken from Shimonishi et al. 2010; Shimonishi 2012). The green open squares represent photometric fluxes of Spitzer/IRAC band 1 (3.55 μm) and band 2 (4.5 μm) measured in the SAGE survey. Detected ice absorption bands are labeled in each panel and the wavelengths of hydrogen recombination lines are indicated in the upper panels.
