One-armed oscillation modes in the circumstellar discs of Be stars may explain the cyclical variations in their emission lines. We show that a three-dimensional effect, involving vertical motion and neglected in previous treatments,…

In this paper we study the effect of the quadrupole-term in the gravitational potential of a rotationally deformed central Be star on one armed density waves in the circumstellar disc. The aim is to explain the observed long-term violet…
There is an increasing body of evidence that suggests that Be disks are well described by the Viscous Decretion Disk (VDD) model according to which the formation and structure of the disk depend on the kinematic viscosity of the gas.…
We present a novel theoretical tool to analyze the dynamical behaviour of a Be disk fed by non-constant decretion rates. It is mainly based on the computer code HDUST, a fully three-dimensional radiative transfer code that has been…
We analyzed V-band photometry of the Be star {\omega} CMa, obtained during the last four decades, during which the star went through four complete cycles of disc formation and dissipation. The data were simulated by hydrodynamic models…
The observed emission lines of Be stars originate from a circumstellar Keplerian disk that are generally well explained by the Viscous Decretion Disk model. In an earlier work we performed the modeling of the full light curve of the bright…
Be stars exhibit variability for a great number of observables. Putting the pieces together of the disk dynamics is not an easy task and requires arduous modeling before achieving a good fit of the observational data. In order to guide the…
Be stars possess gaseous circumstellar decretion disks, which are well described using standard $\alpha$-disk theory. The Be star 28 CMa recently underwent a long outburst followed by a long period of quiescence, during which the disk…
We investigate the long-term and large-scale viscous evolution of dense planetary rings using a simple 1D numerical code. We use a physically realistic viscosity model derived from N-body simulations (Daisaka et al., 2001), and dependent on…
We investigate gap formation in gaseous protostellar disks by a planet in a circular orbit in the limit of low disk viscosity. This regime may be appropriate to an aging disk after the epoch of planet formation. We find that the distance of…
The circumstellar disk density distributions for a sample of 63 Be southern stars from the BeSOS survey were found by modelling their H$\alpha$ emission line profiles. These disk densities were used to compute disk masses and disk angular…
We report the finding of a linear, non-axisymmetric, global instability in gas discs around stars, which may be relevant to other astrophysical discs. It takes the form of an $m=1$ mode that grows in the disc density distribution while the…
Be stars are rapidly rotating, with angular frequency around $0.7-0.8$ of their Keplerian break up frequency, as a result of significant accretion during the earlier stellar evolution of a companion star. Material from the equator of the Be…
The theory of radiatively-induced warps in accretion discs is applied to the discs of Be stars. It is found that these discs may develop warps in their inner regions, although once the warp amplitude is large enough then the interaction…
The growing process of both a young protostar and a circumstellar disk is investigated. Viscous evolution of a disk around a single star is considered with a model where a disk increases its mass by dynamically accreting envelope and…
Be stars are rapid rotators surrounded by a gaseous disk envelope whose origin is still under debate. This envelope is responsible for observed emission lines and large infrared excess. To progress in the understanding of the physical…
