Deriving X-Ray Line Profiles for Massive-star Winds from Momentum-conserving Dynamical Working Surface Solutions

We present a general procedure for deriving a line-profile model for massive-star X-ray spectra that captures the dynamics of the wind more directly. The basis of the model is the analytic solution to the problem of variable jets in Herbig–Haro objects given by Cantó et al. In deriving our model, we...
