Nuclear Astrophysics: from Stars to Nuclei



The talk is focused on the interplay between astrophysics and nuclear physics, which is called “nuclear astrophysics”. I give an introduction about the way Stars are born and how different Stars evolve. I show that nuclear reactions play a central role in the star evolution: they produce the energy released by the stars, and determine the nucleosynthesis of heavy elements.
