Spectrophotometric Study of Four Bright Be Stars
Abstract
The spectrophotometric observations of four Be stars and one normal B-type star are reported. The continuum energy distribution data of these stars are presented in the wavelength range of λλ3200 8000 Å. The observations are compared with synthetic models to estimate effective temperature and to examine the behaviour of the circumstellar envelope of Be stars on their continuum energy distributions. The excess emission from the envelope affects the continua of the Be stars HR 1786 and HR 1910 strongly in the near-ultraviolet and near-infrared regions.
