Radiation-Driven Wind Hydrodynamics of Massive Stars: A Review
Mass loss from massive stars plays a determining role in their evolution through the upper Hertzsprung–Russell diagram. The hydrodynamic theory that describes their steady-state winds is the line-driven wind theory (m-CAK). From this theory, the mass loss rate and the velocity profile of the wind ca...
