Parameters that describe the wind structure in Fastwind.

Wind structure parameters in Fastwind
fcl Clumping factor
fic Interclump density contrast
fvel Velocity filling factor
vcl,start Onset of clumping
vcl,max Clumping reaches maximum (fcl)
h Porosity length
vwindturb Wind turbulence

Notes. All these parameters can directly affect the shape of a spectral line, except for h, which is only impacting continuum opacity. We note that fcl is in fact the maximum value of clumping that is reached at vcl,max, and vwindturb the maximum value of the wind turbulence reached at the terminal velocity. Furthermore, it is important to note that not all parameters listed here are treated as free parameters in our analysis (see Sect. 3.5).
