Paper:	Near-Infrared Excess of Classical Be Stars

Abstract:	Classical Be stars can attribute their IR excess to free-free emission from ionized gas. Those with exceptionally large IR excess (J-H, and H-K both greater than 0.6 mag), however, must be accounted for by thermal emission from circumstellar dust which is condensed out in the flattened, expanding envelope as these fast-rotating stars evolve to the giant phase.
