The influence of rotation in radiation driven winds from hot stars: II. CAK topological analysis

The topological analysis from Bjorkman (1995) for the standard model that describes the winds from hot stars by Castor et al. (1975) has been extended to include the effect of stellar rotation and changes in the ionization of the wind. The differential equation for the momentum of the wind is non-li...
