Abstract

We present the first K'-band, long-baseline interferometric observations of the northern Be stars {gamma} Cas, {phi} Per, {zeta} Tau, and {kappa} Dra. The measurements were made with multiple telescope pairs of the CHARA Array interferometer and in every case the observations indicate that the circumstellar disks of the targets are resolved. We fit the interferometric visibilities with predictions from a simple disk model that assumes an isothermal gas in Keplerian rotation. We derive fits of the four model parameters (disk base density, radial density exponent, disk normal inclination, and position angle) for each of the targets.
