Radiative shift of an isothermal breeze maximum ($r_M^{\prime }=[GM-\sigma L/(4\pi \bar{m}c)]/(2a^2)$)

For unattenuated isotropic radiation from a point source, the radiation pressure force on each absorbing particle is $\sigma L/(4\pi c{r}^2)$. Dividing by its mass $\bar{m}$ changes the effective inverse-square inward acceleration to $[GM-\sigma L/(4\pi \bar{m}c)]/r^2$. The wind equation therefore places the maximum of a subsonic isothermal breeze at the displayed radius, provided the bracket is positive. If it is nonpositive, the positive-temperature subsonic outflow decreases in speed throughout its domain and has no interior speed maximum. A cross section per particle requires that particle's mass; an opacity per unit mass instead absorbs this conversion.
