Post-main-sequence Evolution

Post-Main-Sequence Evolution is a phase in stellar evolution characterized by the departure of a star from the main sequence on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, driven by the exhaustion of core hydrogen fusion and distinguished from earlier evolutionary stages by the initiation of shell hydrogen burning and subsequent core contraction or expansion leading to red giant or supergiant formation.
