Abstract

Empirical and semiempirical expressions for the rate of mass loss, derived for O and B stars, have been examined vis-a-vis R 136a. The best expression has been used to predict the rate of mass loss for some R 136a-type objects. The change in predicted values, when these objects are not single stars but are composed of a dense cluster of similar stars has been discussed.
