The End of Massive Stars
The evolution of our Sun from ordinary star into red giant is radically different from the evolution of much more massive stars towards their end-points: supernova explosions followed by black holes.
This lecture will contrast the relevant nuclear physics and thermodynamics that determine these very different outcomes.
A lecture by Katherine Blundell OBE recorded on 18 January 2023 at David Game College, London.
