I have a lot of respect for you man. If you ever come to Saudi Arabia respond to this comment and i'd love to show you around and get you the best arabian coffee! Much love

Actually I'm planning to visit SA in the autumn, so perhaps we can meet in person while I'm there.

Awww, you're too kind! I'm in Indonesia right now, they have great coffee here to no need to buy me one. Just keep up the good work with the studying! Cheers, Mitch

Is it true that for the end of the evolution of low-mass stars as red giants, their death is more kind of due to the gravity at the surface being very weak so passive ejections happen, as opposed to the fact that they cant produce any more elements?
Also, if the remnant mass of a red supergiant is greater than the Oppen-heimer Volkoff limit, it will become a black hole, so the core will collapse beyond the neutron core. But how does this result in a supernova? Since there is no "rebound" off of the neutron core

[@douglasauyeung2274]

During 13:34, why does electron degeneracy create a neutron core?

[@OSC1990]

They can't be stacked any more, so they end up resisting the gravitational collapse. This ends up making a core composed of neutrons
