We report an erratum to Shagatova et al. (2016). Due to the incorrect reasoning, Eqs. (17) and (18) contain redundant factor 2, leading to two times higher values of the spherical equivalent of the mass-loss rate sp in Table 3. However, the conclusions of the original article remain valid since the correct values of sp are of the same order of ≈10−6 M yr−1 for typical terminal velocities of the red giant wind in symbiotic systems. We apologize for any inconvenience that may have been caused due to our error. In the paragraph below, the revised version of Sect. 4.2 is given, except for its first and last sentence, which are correct, in addition to Table 3 with proper values of sp.

Table 3.

Spherical equivalent of the mass-loss rate, sp (Eq. (18)), corresponding to model parameters in Table 2 for v = 30 km s−1.

For the integral (5) expressed in the length units of RG, we can rewrite Eq. (9) as

a R G = n 1 v λ 1 . $$ \begin{aligned} \dfrac{a}{R_{\rm G}} = \dfrac{n_1v_\infty }{\lambda _1}. \end{aligned} $$(17)

Then, using Eq. (6) we obtain the relationship

M ˙ sp = 2 π μ m H R G n 1 λ 1 v , $$ \begin{aligned} \dot{M}_{\rm sp} = 2\pi \mu m_{\rm H}R_{\rm G} \dfrac{n_1}{\lambda _1}v_\infty , \end{aligned} $$(18)

where n1 is the resulting parameter of our models (see Table 2).
