Description Massive stars, their nature and evolution, play a important role at
all stages of the Universe. Through their radiatively driven winds they
influence on the dynamics and energetics of the interstellar medium.
The winds of OB stars are the most studied case. Commonly, the
mass-loss rates of luminous OB stars are inferred from several types of
measurements, the strengths of UV P Cygni lines, H-alpha emission and
radio and FIR continuum emission. Recent evidence indicates that
currently accepted mass-loss rates may need to be revised downwards
when small-scale density inhomogeneities (clumping) are taken into
account. We argue that only a consistent treatment of ALL possible
diagnostics, scanning different parts of the winds, and analyzed by means
of state of the art model atmospheres, will permit the determination of
true mass-loss rates. To this end we have assembled a variety of
multi-wavelength data, but one crucial observational set is missing:
far-IR diagnostics of free-free emission, which uniquely constrain the
clumping properties of the wind at intermediate heights.
We propose, therefore, to use PACS photometric mode to fill this crucial
gap, studying the 70 and 110 micron fluxes of a carefully selected sample
of 29 O4-B8 stars. These observations will provide the missing
information to derive the clumping properties of the entire outflow,
to understand the wind physics, and to obtain reliable massloss rates.

Mission Description Herschel was launched on 14 May 2009! It is the fourth 'cornerstone' mission in the ESA science programme. With a 3.5 m Cassegrain telescope it is the largest space telescope ever launched. It is performing photometry and spectroscopy in approximately the 55-671 µm range, bridging the gap between earlier infrared space missions and groundbased facilities.
