Scientific paper

Five Be stars classified as pole-on were monitored for linear
polarization variability. Only one star (omega Ori) showed polarization
changes. These changes are attributed to variable mass loss.
Observations of this star indicate an axially symmetric distribution of
envelope scattering material.
