I think that's a pulsar.

When a star has no fuel left and its outer layers escape into space what is its remaining core called?
When the layers escape into space, this is classified as a planetary nebula. What usually is left behind is a white dwarf.
How old is a yellow star?
It can be as old as 10 billion years. Then it increases to the size of a giant and supernova. After that it turns into a small dense white dwarf.
What is an old dense hot star?
White dwarf
When a white dwarf exceeds the Chandrasekhar limit what happens?
It will explode as a type Ia supernova.
Is a white dwarf an old dense cool star?
A white dwarf is the remains of an old star, but they still remain very hot and will continue to shine as a white dwarf for many millions of years until they gradually cool off to become black dwarfs. They are very dense.

What kind of star is most likely to become a white-dwarf supernova?
A supernova is a star that has exploded into dust and gas. A white-dwarf is a small, hot, dense star nearing the end of its life, that did not have enough mass to go supernova. So the answer is "none".

What is the order from smallest to largest sun supernova red giant white dwarf?
White Dwarf, Sun, Red Giant, Supernova

Is your sun a supernova or a white dwarf?
The sun is neither a supernova nor a white dwarf. The sun is a main sequence star. A supernova is not a kind of star: it is the explosion of a massive star.
What causes a white dwarf supernova?
A white dwarf supernova can only happen in binary pairs where the white dwarf rips matter from the larger star and eventually becomes unstable and it collapses in on itself.
What is the phase of a star approaches supernova?
White Dwarf.
What happens with the white dwarf in a type 1a supernova?
The white dwarf collapses under its own gravity. This starts very rapid nuclear fusion reactions. It explodes as a supernova and "stuff" is scattered into space. Essentially nothing of the white dwarf, as an object, remains.
Will the sun become a supernova or black hole?
No. When the sun dies it will expel its outer layers in a series of gradual pulses and leave behind a white dwarf.
