Be Stars, Circumstellar Disks

Scientific paper

Be stars were discovered as early as 1866 by the famous Jesuit astronomer Angelo Secchi. Not only was γ Cas the first known Be star but the first star ever to be seen displaying emission lines. About half-way between then and today, the work by Otto Struve and others led to the picture that Be stars differ from supergiant B-type stars, which also feature emission lines, in that they are much less evolved, rotate extremely rapidly (up to 450 km/s at the equator), and their emission lines arise from a circumstellar disk.
