Abstract

The physics behind the solar wind is investigated in order to determine whether it is possible to have a star whose solar pressure could be held back by the local interstellar medium, thus placing it in hydrostatic equilibrium with no solar wind. It is found using a simplified model that such a star probably cannot exist.
