Scientific paper

A number of rapidly rotating B stars, not previously known as Be stars, were observed spectroscopically at H alpha. These results were then combined with existing data to show that the spectral type of a star and the minimum velocity at which it must rotate in order to become a Be star are related. The trend of this relationship is found to have a natural explanation in terms of stellar winds.
