What is Stellar wind?
'''Stellar wind''' is [[gas]] being thrown off from the upper atmosphere of a [[star]]. Different types of stars have different types of stellar winds. The Sun's stellar wind is called [[solar wind]]. Most stars, especially very bright ones, show continuous outflows of gas from their surfaces making the stellar wind. [[Radiation pressure]] is thought to be the main force that pushes the gas away, but modern research uses computer simulations and observations with the most powerful telescopes<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.physics.uu.se/research/astronomy-and-space-physics/research/stars/Stellar+winds/|title=Stellar winds - Department of Physics and Astronomy - Uppsala University, Sweden|website=www.physics.uu.se|language=en|access-date=2020-04-21|archive-date=2020-08-07|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200807044951/https://physics.uu.se/research/astronomy-and-space-physics/research/stars/Stellar+winds/|url-status=dead}}</ref> to understand it further. ==References== <references /> {{physics-stub}} [[Category:Astrophysics]]
