Scientific paper

A co-rotating interaction region (CIR) forms in a stellar wind when a fast stream from a rotating star overtakes a slow stream. CIR's have been studied in detail in the solar wind over the past decade. Here, the author points out their usefulness in interpreting several spectroscopic features in stars of various types, including "hybrid" stars, OB stars, and cool supergiants.
