Theory of ring formation around Be stars

DOI:https://doi.org/10.1086/129967· OSTI ID:7342652
A quantitative theory has been developed for the formation of the gaseous rings around Be stars based on the ideas, first discussed by Gerasimovic, later developed by Huang, and independently suggested by Massa. The theory has been derived from the laws of conservation of energy and angular momentum without any other assumptions.
