Scientific paper

We show that Be stars belong to a high velocity tail of a single B-type star
rotational velocity distribution in the MS. This implies that: 1) the number
fraction N(Be)/N(Be+B) is independent of the mass; 2) Bn stars having ZAMS
rotational velocities higher than a given limit might become Be stars.
