Scientific paper

Millimeter-wave observations of six bright classical Be stars were made with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. All stars exhibit an mm-cm spectral index that is steeper than the IRAS (12-60 micron) spectral index, indicating a turnover in the continuum energy distribution. It is suggested that this turnover may be caused by a change in the geometry of the disk or by an additional outward acceleration of the material at a large distance from the star.
