Abstract

The continuum energy distribution of six Be stars, namely 25 Cyg, 31 Peg, HR 8758, 14 Lac, 12 Vul, and β Psc, in the wavelength region γγ3200–7800 Å, are presented. Comparing the observed energy distributions with those of theoretical models given by Kurucz (1979), their effective temperatures are determined.

A near-infrared excess emission at wavelengths above γ6000 Å is seen in most of the stars.
