Physics

Scientific paper

Hot, massive, luminous have very strong stellar winds, with flow speeds
of order 1% the speed of light and mass loss rates sometimes a billion
times that of the solar wind. In this talk, I will review the physics of
how these winds are driven by line-scattering of the star's light, and
contrast this to the gas-pressure driving of the solar wind.
