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 ...

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.

Stars produce stellar wind—a tenuous flow of magnetised plasma extending deep into circumstellar space. It is thought that forceful stellar wind can erode the atmospheres of planets lacking strong magnetic fields, and thus reduce the planets' potential ...

Hydrodynamics and Stellar Winds [PDF]
Stellar winds are a common phenomenon in the life of stars, from the dwarfs like the Sun to the red giants and hot supergiants, constituting one of the basic aspects of modern astrophysics.

The magnetic fields and stellar winds of the mature late F-stars: β Virginis and θ Draconis [PDF]
International audienceMapping the large-scale magnetic field in late F-type stars is important for understanding the nature of the stellar dynamo and the dynamics of thin outer convection zones.

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.
