2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/1521I discuss the X-ray observations of Be stars, and how their properties compare to non-emission B stars. I focus on several specific stars that show high flux levels and variability but also report on several interesting survey results. The Be X-ray properties are discussed in the context of wind-shock X-ray emission from normal OB stars as well as in the context of general mechanisms that have been proposed to explain the Be phenomenon. Finally, I conclude with a discussion of the spectral diagnostics that will be available from the new generation of X-ray telescopes.To appear in A.S.P. conf. ser. 214, The Be Phenomenon in Early-Type Stars, eds.
