Structural peculiarities of circumstellar envelopes of the young A0E herbig stars

Circumstellar peculiarities of the A0-type Herbig stars are analyzed on the basis of high-resolution CCD spectroscopic data, obtained in 1991-1994 at the ESO and the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory (about 250 spectrograms). The results of investigation of the rapid line profile variability in H , H , HeI 5876 and DNa lines are presented for AB Aur, HD 163296, HD 36112 and HD 100546. The conclusion is made that the behaviour of these lines can be explained in the framework of the model containing an equatorially concentrated and azimuthally inhomogeneous stellar wind and an external cool shell occasionally losing matter in the form of infall on to the star.
