Spectrophotometric and Photometric Behaviours of Be Stars: the Circumstellar Envelope Formation Mechanisms
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
A mechanism to create circumstellar envelopes in Be stars is proposed. The mechanism assumes a mass-loaded wind produced by ablated discrete stellar ejecta. The discrete mass ejections are suggested by the long-term spectrophotometric behaviours of Be stars and by their short and long-lived light outbursts discovered recently.
