Disk and stellar continuum – DISCO
Description
Model of the continuum emission from a star surrounded by a gaseous circumstellar disk (free-free and bound-free). The disk is assumed to be partially ionized and geometrically thin, with a physical structure given by the viscous Keplerian decretion disk model and depending on physical input parameters (e.g. temperature, density). Images include contributions from the stellar photosphere and from the free-free and bound-free disk emission. DISCO is well suited to model Be stars, but can also be used to model other objects with similar physical components. The specific intensity maps in the fits files have units of "J / (m2 s sr m)".
Sample output file (.fits)The DISCO model was created by A. Domiciano de Souza based on the work of Rodrigo G. Vieira.
