Scientific paper

MK spectral classifications of over 2500 Case-Hamburg luminous stars are examined to determine whether those for which Hα was reported in emission in the original surveys (but for which blue-region emission was not noted) are more likely to have MK classifications indicating blue-region emission than their non-Hα counterparts; this proves to be the case. In addition, stars with Hα emission are less likely to be supergiants than their non-Hα counterparts, and, when emission is indicated in the MK classification, one is much more likely to be dealing with a luminosity class V or III star than a bright giant or supergiant.
