1 Corot Week 61 Targets selection Be stars Paris-Meudon Observatory: A.-M. Hubert, M. Floquet, C. Neiner Univ. of Valencia: J. Fabregat, J. Gutierrez-Soto, J. Suso Univ. of Sao Paulo: E. Janot-Pacheco, L. Andrade, S. Daflon Royal Observatory of Belgium: Y. Frémat ESA, Estec, RSSD: C. Neiner

2 Corot Week 62 Early and late Be stars: 2 science goals  Early Be stars (B0-B3): pulsations and multiperiodicity already detected from the ground  Is the beating effect of close pulsation periods the cause of the Be phenomenon i.e. the presence of a disk around Be stars?  Effects of fast rotation and magnetic field on the pulsations  Late Be stars (B4-B9): pulsations predicted by theory but the amplitude is too small to be detected from the ground  detection of pulsations with Corot!

3 Corot Week 63 Photometric variability: Hipparcos (Hubert & Floquet )  Some of the targets observed by Hipparcos: periodicity found!

4 Corot Week 64 Ground-based photometry + variability (Fabregat, Gutierrez-Soto, Suso)  Stromgren photometry at the 0.9m in Granada (6 weeks) for variability: detection of variability, periodicity and even multiperiodicity for HD 168797 and HD 179405  uvby photometry + narrow filters (H , H  ) at the 1.5m in Calar Alto (3 weeks) to search for faint Be stars in the exoplanet fields See Gutierrez-Soto et al. 2003 and posters!

5 Corot Week 65 Spectroscopy: GAUDI  for 6 < V < 8  spectra in GAUDI  17 new Be stars discovered in GAUDI (Neiner, Hubert & Catala, 2004) But:  No spectrum if V > 8  Does not allow variability study

6 Corot Week 66 Additional spectroscopy + variability (Hubert, Janot-Pacheco, Andrade)  Spectroscopic observations at the 1.5m at OHP (6 weeks)  Spectroscopic observations at the 1.6m at LNA (1 week)  Spectrum for Be stars with V > 8  Detection of variability

7 Corot Week 67 Determination of stellar parameters ( Frémat, Neiner, Daflon, Andrade)  Data : GAUDI + OHP + LNA  2 independent determinations: Frémat & Neiner + Daflon & Andrade  ~70 Be stars in the eyes of Corot (See Frémat, Neiner et al. 2004) 26000 3.75 253

21 Corot Week 621 Results for exploratory fields  ~ 60 possible Be targets for exploratory fields  It is better to concentrate on early Be stars, since we have very few early Be stars as secondary targets  2 already detected with multiperiodicity (Fabregat et al.) : HD 168797 (B3e) and HD 179405 (B5e)  Targets in non-selected primary fields have been well studied  easier candidates

22 Corot Week 622 Conclusions  We need early and late Be stars as secondary targets: 2 different science goals  We found variability, periodicity and even multiperiodicity in most of the Be stars, in spectroscopy and in photometry  We plan to search for magnetic fields with Espadons (CFHT) for the Be secondary targets (starting Feb. 2005)  We have 9 out of 18 Be stars (possible secondary targets) which are well positioned in the CCDs, but 6 late and only 3 early  We need to concentrate on early Be stars for the exploratory fields  We already have 2 very interesting exploratory candidates
