St-louis Nicole

Biography

 Nicole's research is mainly on the wind from the most massive stars. In view of their great luminosity - reaching one million times that of the Sun - these stars lose a large proportion of their mass over their lifetimes. This stellar wind is not symmetrical or homogenous. important detail is usually impossible to measure for the massive stars she is studying, since their surface is completely concealed behind the very dense wind. Because the large-scale structures are attached to the surface, identifying a period in the star's spectral or luminous variations lets us deduce the rotation velocity. She carries thesis and many dissertation which is claimed by many research students and ph.d scholars

Research Interest
