<div style="text-align: center;" class=""><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="">What happens to a star when fusion isn't the only relevant power source? We explore how introducing non-nuclear energy, such as energy that could
come from dark matter annihilation, affects the evolution of massive stars. In particular, we aim to determine whether stars which produce a significant amount of energy from non-nuclear sources can avoid undergoing pair instability supernovae, and can therefore
form black holes in the forbidden mass gap between 50 and 140 Msun.</span></div>
