Scientific paper

We propose to perform a survey of the X-ray emission from Be stars, of both the magnetic and non-magnetic variety. Remarkably, only two Be stars (apart from the very peculiar gamma Cas variety) have been observed in X-rays in recent times (beta Cep and lambda Eri), with very interesting results; no other Be star has been observed in X-rays in the post-ROSAT era. The present survey is thus needed to bring the study of X-ray emission from Be stars, with the attending interesting physics of shocked winds (either magnetically confined or not) and decretion disks into the modern era.
