Synchrotron Emission from Chaotic Stellar WindsA model is presented for the radio emission from hot stars. Electrons are accelerated to relativistic energies by shocks in the wind near the star and emit radio radiation through the synchrotron mechanism. The particle spectrum and radio spectrum for this model are derived. The model accounts for many of the observed characteristics of some recently discovered stars which have peculiar radio emission.
