DESCRIPTION:Massive stars (at least eight times as massive as the Sun)\npo
 ssess strong stellar winds driven by radiation. With the advent of the so 
 called MiMeS collaboration\, an increasing number of these massive stars h
 ave been confirmed to have global magnetic fields. Such magnetic fields ca
 n have significant influence on the dynamics of these stellar winds which 
 are strongly ionized. Such interaction of the wind and\nmagnetic field can
  generate copious amount of X-rays\, they can spin the star down\, they ca
 n also help form large scale disk-like structures. In this presentation I 
 will discuss the nature of such radiatively-driven winds and how they inte
 ract with magnetic fields.
