With constant kinematic viscosity and zero inner viscous torque in an accretion disk, νΣr​=(6π)−1∫0r​Facc​(r′)/r′​dr′. For the steady photoevaporating-disk mass flux, the density is (M˙d​−M˙w​)/(3πν) inside rg​ and the displayed logarithmic profile outside. At equal feeding and wind rates the inner density vanishes, and the outer normalized profile rises from zero with zero slope and tends to one. Its near-edge expansion is (r/rg​−1)2/8.
