Validity of clumping approximations for mass-loss rates determination
Clumping in stellar winds of hot stars is a possible consequence of radiative-acoustic instability appearing in solutions of radiative-hydrodynamical equations. However, clumping is usually included to stellar atmosphere modeling and radiative transfer calculations in a highly approximate way via a global free parameter called the clumping factor ...
