TY - JOUR ID - 368252 AU - Krtička, Jiří - Kubát, Jiří PY - 2001 TI - Multicomponent radiatively driven stellar windsII. Gayley-Owocki heating in multitemperature winds of OB stars JF - Astronomy and Astrophysics VL - 35 IS - 377 SP - 175 EP - 175 PB - EDP Sciences SN - 00046361 KW - hydrodynamics -- stars: mass-loss -- stars: early-type -- stars: winds KW - outflows N2 - We show that the so-called Gayley-Owocki (Doppler) heating is important for the temperature structure of the wind of main sequence stars cooler than the spectral type O6. The formula for Gayley-Owocki heating is derived directly from the Boltzmann equation as a direct consequence of the dependence of the driving force on the velocity gradient. Since Gayley-Owocki heating deposits heat directly on the absorbing ions, we also investigated the possibility that individual components of the radiatively driven stellar wind have different temperatures. This effect is negligible in the wind of O stars, whereas a significant temperature difference takes place in the winds of main sequence B stars for stars cooler than B2. Typical temperature differences between absorbing ions and other flow components for such stars is of the order 103 K. However, in the case when the passive component falls back onto the star, the absorbing component reaches temperatures of order 106 K, which allows for emission of X-rays. Moreover, we compare our computed terminal velocities with the observed ones. We found quite good agreement between predicted and observed terminal velocities. The systematic difference coming from the using of the so called "cooking formula" has been removed. ER -
