Abstract
Here we explore three types of models in which the combination of magnetic fields with line driving forces leads to faster winds than line forces alone. The fields can change the flow geometry; they can couple with rotation and transmit angular momentum; and they can carry transverse Alfvén waves. All three can lead to a deposition of momentum beyond the critical point and accelerate winds. Some history of the attempts to use magnetic fields to understand hot star winds is discussed and several new models for magnetic rotator B[e] winds are presented.
