Scientific paper

The coronae of hot stars are compared with those of the sun and other cool stars, and some important distinctions are drawn. Principal among these are that the hot star coronae readily radiate away any deposited energy, and that the overriding concern is how the momentum is deposited that drives their very vigorous winds. The features of radiatively driven winds are reviewed, with particular attention to their evidently very complex, and presently poorly known, spatial and temporal structure. Some possible explanations for the structure are considered.
