Scientific paper

A comparison is conducted between long-term changes in the optical and IR continuum energy distribution of Gamma Cas and the line-shape variability of the H-beta emission line. Attention is given to two models that can explain the V/R variations: (1) the expanding/contracting spherical shell model, and (2) the nonaxisymmetric disk model. It is concluded that the expanding/contracting shell model cannot account for the constancy of the IR continuum, and that the nonaxisymmetric disk model agrees best with observations.
