  1. Dynamical Origin of Wind Structure Stan Owocki Bartol Research Institute Department of Physics & Astronomy University of Delaware The effect of “velocity porosity” on P-Cygni line absorption strength

  2. Key Issues • What is effect of wind clumping on line-absorption? • Velocity dispersion vs. Spatial Porosity • What are relevant scaling parameters (cf. fr, h=l/f)? • In dynamical model, how important for, eg. PV?

  3. Spatial Porosity • Same amount of material • More light gets through • Less interaction between matter and light Incident light

  4. porosity length=h Effective opacity

  27. Summary • Spatial porosity for continuum opacity • characterized by “porosity length” h=l/fr • But for line opacity, key is“velocity clumping” • characterized by fvel(and tSob of smoothed wind) • Line-driven instability suggests: • fvel ~= 0.7-0.8 (maybe 0.5 if seeded by low freq. pert) • Mdot misunderestimated by fvel , i.e. 0.5-0.8 • Maybe upto a factor 2 of the ca. 10 needed for PV
