摘要
Astrophysical arguments constrain the properties of various elementary particles in ways which are often complementary to cosmological arguments and to laboratory experiments. This pertains, in particular, to neutrinos, axions, other Nambu-Goldstone bosons, and gravitons, which are light so that their production in the hot and dense interior of stars is not impeded by threshold effects. This review provides an update to the most important stellar-evolution limits and discusses them in the context of other information from cosmology and laboratory experiments.
