Question

Which type of stars end their life as a neutron star?

Answer 1

Answer:

Supernovae occur at the end of a massive star's life, when it is a red supergiant, with its nuclear fuel almost spent. When the central core becomes so dense that electrons and protons begin to form neutrons, it collapses catastrophically to form a neutron star.

Explanation:

Neutron stars are created when giant stars die in supernovas and their cores collapse, with the protons and electrons essentially melting into each other to form neutrons. Neutron stars are city-size stellar objects with a mass about 1.4 times that of the sun.
