What types of stars are thought to be the remnants of supernova explosions?

Supernova explosions are believed to generally result in a black hole, as the core of the star is collapsed into an unimaginably dense point mass. One can't really say that a black hole is any kind of star.
Less powerful nova explosions probably result in pulsars or neutron stars.

Are pulsars found in supernova remnants.?
Yes. All pulsars and neutron stars are the remnants of a supernova explosion.
Instellar gas is composed mainly of?
Mainly hydrogen, with small of helium, ammonia, methane and other trace gasses. Also, a lot of dust.Some of the hydrogen may be primordial, remnants from the Big Bang that we believe created the universe. But all of the heavier elements (and some of the hydrogen) are the remnants of old supernova explosions, the ejecta from the destruction of the original stars.
The interstellar medium is enriched with heavy elements by the remnants of what?
The interstellar medium is enriched with heavy elements by the remnants of supernovas. A supernova is the spectacular explosion at the end of a stars life when it collapses in on itself.
Is germanium natural or man made?
Germanium (Ge) is a natural element.Like all elements heavier than than Nickel and Iron, Germanium is naturally produced in supernova explosions of old massive stars.
How the elements were created?
Nucleosynthesis in the early stages of the universe. This created light elements up to Beryllium. The others came from nuclear fission when stars formed, and were distributed by supernova explosions at the end of some of the stars' life. Takes about a billion of years by order of magnitude.
Are pulsars found in supernova remnants.?
Yes. All pulsars and neutron stars are the remnants of a supernova explosion.
Which stars go out with a bang?
Really big stars, which die in supernova explosions.
What gives a supernova its energy?
Mass. E=MC2 Supernova explosions happen with the most massive of stars > 20 of our Suns.
Why are blue stars called supernovas?
They are not. A supernova is an explosion of a star. Blue stars usually end their lives in such explosions.
What Create most of the elements on the periodic table?
Stars - by nuclear fusion, by supernova explosions, and by colliding neutron stars.
What are remnants of planets that exploded?
The elements of the periodic table are made in thee explosions and these are then flung out into interstellar space. New stars then form including these supernova remnants and planets round these stars then have iron, and uranium in their makeup. The Iron in your blood was produced as material from a huge star exploding.
These stars are produced during a supernova event?
Either a neutron star or a black hole. Note: These are not really stars but stellar remnants.
Why are supernovas called supernovas?
They are not. A supernova is an explosion of a star. Blue stars usually end their lives in such explosions.

What objects appear suddenly as new stars but eventually fade from view?
Supernova. There are Chinese and European accounts from centuries ago of "guest stars," new stars that appeared and faded from view. We can see the expanding remnants of those supernova today--one is the Crab Nebula.
What type of stars hotter?
The hottest stars are supernova explosions, which may reach temperatures around a billion kelvin in the star's core.
