Winds From Hot Star DisksIn this talk I will briefly review the observational motivation and evidence for mass loss from disks around hot stars. Direct evidence for these outflows comes from line profiles in, eg. young stellar objects. Indirect evidence comes from the implied mass loss rates and wind speeds, along with dynamical models which can account for these properties. Mechanisms for disk wind driving include thermal, radiation pressure, and MHD. These will be reviewed and discussed, as will the relation to non-disk winds, and to disk winds in other contexts.
