Understanding the Pauli Exclusion Principle's Role in Black Hole Formation

The Pauli Exclusion Principle prevents fermions from occupying the same quantum state. However, in the context of black holes, it is unclear how this principle interacts with the extreme gravitational forces that cause collapse. This knowledge gap hinders our understanding of why black holes form while neutron stars do not.
