摘要: It is shown that the usual assumption of regarding radiatively driven winds hot stars as a one-component fluid wrong under certain circumstances. A detailed investigation mechanism momentum transfer from accelerated ions to bulk matter stellar wind plasma via Coulomb collisions shows that, at least for thin winds, one-fluid description not justified. Instead, objects with multicomponent model required because ionic decoupling occurs, which leads «runaway mechanism» and hence terminates
