Scientific paper

Spectroscopic studies indicate that gas in the photospheres of young O stars
moves at speeds up to the sound speed. We show, using two-dimensional radiation
MHD calculations and results from a local linear analysis, that the motions may
be due to photon bubble instability if young O stars have magnetic fields.
