Abstract
The λ 10124 He II line has been found to be a measurable emission in three stars. Our new data are compared to theoretical predictions. The λ 10830 He I line is observed in emission in 74 % of the 05–08 supergiants but only seen in 29 % of the dwarfs, all of the latter exhibiting some “pecularities” i.e. classified as Oef, Oe, ON or On. An envelope with a sufficient amount of material seems to be a favorable condition to get the λ 10830 line in emission. However the mechanism leading to the observed emission is temperature dependent as well.
