Quasi-Keplerian Be-Star Disks with Mimicking Viscosity
Michel Cure, Ignacio Araya, Rodrigo Meneses +5
Classical Be stars are fast-rotating B-type stars with gaseous quasi-Keplerian disks formed by equatorial ejection of material. While the viscous decretion disk (VDD) model reprodu…

Effect of gravity darkening and oblate factor in rapidly rotating massive stars
Bhawna Mukhija, Michel Curé, Ignacio Araya +2
Context. Rapid rotation in massive stars leads to gravity darkening and oblateness, significantly affecting their radiation-driven winds. These effects can alter wind dynamics and…

The birth of Be star disks I. From localized ejection to circularization
J. Labadie-Bartz, A. C. Carciofi, A. C. Rubio +35
Classical Be stars are well known to eject mass, but the details governing the initial distribution and evolution of this matter into a disk are poorly constrained by observations.…
