We present a numerical model describing a circularly symmetric gaseous disk around the Be star chi Ophiuchi. The model is constrained by long-baseline interferometric observations that are sensitive to the H alpha Balmer line emission from the disk. For the first time, our interferometric observations spatially resolve the inner region of the circumstellar disk around chi Oph, and we use these results to place a constraint on the physical extent of the H alpha-emitting region. We demonstrate how this in turn results in very specific constraints on the parameters that describe the variation of the gas density as a function of radial distance from the central star.
