Bebop scales are 8 notes scales that alternate a chord tone with a scale-tone or passing tone. Where a whole tone distance occur between two chord tones an intermediate chromatic passing tone is used.
Just play in eights and you have on-beat chord tones and off-beat scale/passing tones that produce "inside" lines.
Most famous and useful bebop scales are the dominant bebop (R, M2, M3, P4, P5, M6, m7, M7) and major bebop (R, M2, M3, P4, P5, #5, M6, M7).
Here we see these 4 notes per string fingerings that use only two geometric shapes to play a scale in three octaves.
