Disk formation in oblate B[e] stars

We investigate the possible role of line-driven winds in the circumstellar envelope in B[e] stars, mainly the role of the $Ω$-slow wind solution, which is characterized by a slower terminal velocity and higher mass-loss rate, in comparison with the standard (m-CAK) wind solution. In this work, we assume two scenarios: 1) a spherically symmetric star and 2) a scenario that considers the oblate shape, considering only the oblate correction factor. For certain values of the line force parameters (according to previous works), we obtain in both scenarios a density contrast $\gtrsim10^{2}$ between equatorial and polar densities, characterized for a fast polar wind and a slow and denser wind when the $Ω$-slow wind solution is obtained. All this properties are enhanced when the oblate correction factor is included in our calculations.
