What is the Connection Between Stellar Evolution and Particle Physics?

How did you find PF?

Found a post here via Duckduckgo search engine, wanted to reply.

I'm a big fan of physics and space exploration! I grew up studying all of this stuff and have been fascinated by it ever since. One of my favorite go-to topics to discuss is stellar evolution, because it ties space exploration in the current day with the frontier of particle physics. It feels really great to see a very strange phenomenon become explained by two different fields of science at the same time!

Welcome to PF!

To be clear, Astrobiology isn't related to stellar evolution that would be more Astrophysics.

Here's an interesting read on it:

Trust me, as an astrobiology AND astrophysics enthusiast, that sounds to me the same as "To be clear, Stationery isn't related to cookies, that would be more Baking." I am well aware of the distinction.

My apologies to you.

On the internet, no one knows the background, interests or experience except from what they post. We get many students here who likely wouldn't know the difference.
