Abstract

The Be stars are still a big unknown in respect to the origin and geometry of the circumstellar disk around the star. Program shellspec is designed to solve the simple radiative transfer along the line of sight in three-dimensional moving media. Our goal was to develop an effective method to search in parameter space, which can allow us to find a good estimate of the physical parameters of the disk. We also present here our results for Be star 60 Cyg using the modified code.
