manuscript “The birth of Be star disks… ” published

The paper made by Jonathan Labadie-Bartz was today published: “The birth of Be star disks I. from localized ejection to circularization”; abstract:

Classical Be stars are well known to eject mass to build up a disk, but the details governing the initial distribution and subsequent evolution of this matter into a disk are in general poorly constrained through observations.
Aims. By combining high-cadence time-series spectroscopy with contemporaneous space photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), we have sampled about 30 mass ejection events in 13 Be stars. Our goal is to constrain the geometrical and kinematic properties of the ejecta as early as possible
