The Wolf-Rayet stars and mass loss
Astrophysics and Space Science, 1969Wolf-Rayet stars are defined, a summary is given of the properties of Wolf-Rayet stars, and a qualitative model of a Wolf-Rayet star is sketched. It is incontrovertible that Wolf-Rayet stars are losing mass, a typical rate of mass loss being near 10-5 M ⊙ per year.

Mass Loss from Pulsating Neutron Stars
Nature, 1969DESPITE the trend of recent evidence, both observational and theoretical1, that radial pulsations may not be the source of variation in pulsars, the pulsational hypothesis has still not been disproved. In particular, the expected pulsational damping times of degenerate stars may be sufficiently long (for small oscillations) that observable variations ...

Mass Loss Mechanisms for Cool Stars
1988The discussion of mass loss mechanisms for cool stars is based upon our understanding of thermally driven stellar winds. First we discuss Parker’s thermally driven solar wind model, and consider the effects of energy addition to the flow in the form of heat and momentum.

Mass Loss from Stars: A Review
1969For many decades astronomers have realized that some stars lose mass in the catastrophic events that produce supernovae, ordinary novae, and planetary nebulae. Only recently have we learned that less conspicuous mass-loss processes occur throughout much of the lifetimes of most normal stars.
