In this study, we introduce a new concept in soft topological spaces, namely, soft ω *paracompactness, and we provide characterizations thereof. Its connection with other related concepts is also studied. In particular, we show that soft ω * -paracompactness and soft paracompactness are independent of each other. In addition, we study the soft ω * -paracompactness of the soft topological space generated by an indexed family of ω * -paracompact topological spaces.
