“…This is similar to the K -band size of 1.8 mas computed by Gies et al (2007) and smaller than the 3.1 -4.5 mas FWHM measured in Hα by Quirrenbach et al (1997) and Tycner et al (2004). We find that the star contributes on average about 55% of the light in the H-band.…”

“…Interferometric, direct imaging as well as polarimetric observations show that the gas must be located in a highly flattened circumstellar disk (e.g. Quirrenbach et al 1997). Be stars show no circumstellar dust (with only a few exceptions) and also lack molecular line emission and forbidden lines.…”

“…Evidence has been accumulated to confirm Struve's (1931) original suggestion that the Be envelopes are rotationally flattened disks. An ultimate proof of this statement came from spectro-interferometric and spectropolarimetric observations of several Be stars which allowed a partial spatial resolution of their envelopes -see Quirrenbach et al (1993Quirrenbach et al ( , 1997.…”
