Viscous Transonic Decretion in Disks of Be Stars
We study the characteristics of the outflow in disks of Be stars, based on the viscous decretion disk scenario. In this scenario, the matter ejected from the equatorial surface of the star drifts outward because of the effect of viscosity, and forms the disk. For simplicity, we adopt the α-prescription for the viscous stress, and assume the disk to be isothermal. Solving the resulting wind equa...
متن کاملA Statistical Study of Threshold Rotation Rates for the Formation of Disks around Be Stars
This paper presents a detailed statistical determination of the equatorial rotation rates of classical Be stars. The rapid rotation of Be stars is likely to be linked to the ejection of gas that forms dense circumstellar disks. The physical origins of these disks are not understood, though it is generally believed that the ability to spin up matter into a Keplerian disk depends on how close the...
متن کاملFirst Evidence for Dusty Disks around Herbig Be Stars
We have carried out a high-sensitivity search for circumstellar disks around Herbig Be stars in the continuum at 1.4mm and 2.7mm using the IRAM interferometer at the Plateau de Bure (PdBI) . In this letter, we report data on three well studied B0 stars, MWC 1080, MWC 137 and R Mon. The two latter have also been observed in the continuum at 0.7 cm and 1.3 cm using the NRAO Very Large Array (VLA)...
متن کاملPAHs in Circumstellar Disks around Herbig Ae/Be stars
We investigate the presence and properties of PAHs on the surface of circumstellar disks around Herbig Ae/Be stars by comparing the predictions of disk models with observations. We present results of a radiation transfer code for disks heated by the central star, in hydrostatic equilibrium in the vertical direction (flared disks). The dust is a mixture of large grains in thermal equilibrium, tr...
متن کاملA Pulsational Mechanism for Producing Keplerian Disks around Be Stars
Classical Be stars are an enigmatic subclass of rapidly rotating hot stars characterized by dense equatorial disks of gas that have been inferred to orbit with Keplerian velocities. Although these disks seem to be ejected from the star and not accreted, there is substantial observational evidence to show that the stars rotate more slowly than required for centrifugally driven mass loss. This pa...
