Scientific paper

An approach for determining the mass of massive stars is developed which does not depend on the stellar interior. The mass is calculated from the 'observed' luminosity, effective temperature, and mass-loss rate using the fluctuation theory of the stellar mass loss. The masses obtained using this technique are found to differ from those obtained by fits to the conventional evolution-tracks, and these results are used to construct alternative evolution-tracks.
