Abstract

We present the results of a photometric survey for Be stars in 11 young clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud and 14 young clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud. B stars with hydrogen in emission are identified on the basis of their R-Hα colour. We find that Be star fraction in clusters decreases with cluster age and also decreases with the metallicity. © 2013 The Authors Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society.
