| Abstract: |
The standard modified–CAK equation of motion is a non-linear differential equation that possesses many singular points and
therefore many solutions. Apart from the standard solution, we have found three other physical solutions: i) when the rotational
velocity is higher than 3/4 of the critical rotational speed; ii) when there is a high ionization change throughout the wind;
and iii) when the k line force parameter is very high (k is the fraction of the total stellar flux which would be blocked in the photosphere if all lines were optically thick).
We also show some applications of these solutions, e.g., the wind of a B[e] supergiant, the oblate wind of a Be star, and the winds of BA supergiants. Furthermore, we calculate synthetic spectra with FASTWIND, where we have used our new hydrodynamical solutions as input to the code. |
