This may be measured directly from complete samples of Be-shell stars. The derived distribution is highly consistent with the observed rotational distribution for a complete sample of all Be stars — indeed, the two cannot be statistically differentiated. This method supersedes any previous method in that it does not require any iteration process or ad hoc estimation of the intrinsic rotational velocities of Be stars.It is found that the distribution of rotational velocity as a function of (critical) break-up velocity is sharply peaked at ∼ 0.7vcrit, in accordance with previous studies. Future observational work should further constrain the function.},   URL = {http://mnras.oxfordjournals.org/content/280/3/L31.abstract},   eprint = {http://mnras.oxfordjournals.org/content/280/3/L31.full.pdf+html},   journal = {Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society}   }
