| Abstract |
A review is made of the determinations of the effective temperature, luminosity and masses of 0 type stars. This also involves the status of the comparison of the observations with non-LTE plane-parallel models, which can then be used to derive other parameters about the stars. For most 0 type stars, there seems to be good understanding of the temperature scale and overall comparison to models. For a significant minority, the Of stars and supergiants, there are still uncertainties in the models due to the necessity of including spherical geometry effects and stellar wind dynamics. |

The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.
