Astrospheres and Solar-like Stellar Winds [PDF]
Stellar analogs for the solar wind have proven to be frustratingly difficult to detect directly. However, these stellar winds can be studied indirectly by observing the interaction regions carved out by the collisions between these winds and the ...

A Review of the Theory of Galactic Winds Driven by Stellar Feedback
Galactic winds from star-forming galaxies are crucial to the process of galaxy formation and evolution, regulating star formation, shaping the stellar mass function and the mass-metallicity relation, and enriching the intergalactic medium with metals ...

After a brief review of the modern understanding of stellar wind's action on the ISM we consider two aspects of its "global" collective effect from observational viewpoint.

Nonthermal Motions and Atmospheric Heating of Cool Stars
The magnetic processes associated with the nonthermal broadening of optically thin emission lines appear to carry enough energy to heat the corona and accelerate the solar wind.

Hydrodynamics and Stellar Winds [PDF]
exaly +2 more sources
AbstractThis review discusses winds from stars with hot outer atmospheres, stars with coronae similar to the sun. It illustrates how solar observations can be used to test a theoretical model for solar-stellar winds, and thereby provide some insights concerning applications to studying winds from stars other than the sun.

Stellar Winds in A-Type Supergiants [PDF]
A-type supergiants are just at the boundary between the early type supergiants, with strong stellar winds driven by radiation pressure and the cool supergiants in which the origin of mass loss is the dissipation of mechanical energy. The mechanisms involved in the mass loss processes in A supergiants as a whole, are still uncertain.

Dust Coagulation in Oxygen-rich Circumstellar Outflows
We show that the inefficient growth of SiO molecules on (SiO) _x dust grains prolongs the period of maximum dust nucleation in circumstellar outflows resulting in a several orders-of-magnitude increase in the dust density near the star.
