| Description | A detailed investigation of momentum transfer in radiatively driven stellar winds shows that for the thin wind case ion decoupling may occur. The decoupling of absorbing ions significantly affects dynamics of the wind. We analysed such effects using our hydrodynamic code and predicted spectral changes with the help of the SHELLSPEC code. |
