Abstract
AbstractNonradial pulsations (NRPs) are a possible formation mechanism for the equatorial disks surrounding Be stars. The open cluster NGC 3766 has a high fraction of transient Be stars, Be stars that have been observed with both emission due to a circumstellar disk and a non-emitting B-type spectrum. Because of the large fraction of transient Be stars, this cluster is a prime location for studying the formation mechanisms of Be star disks. We observed NGC 3766 for more than 25 nights over three years to generate Strömgren uvby light curves of the Be population. We present the results of a period search to investigate the presence of NRPs.
