It depends on the density.
Low density = dwarf
Medium density = neutron star
High density = black hole

What is formed from the leftover material after a high mass star explodes?
After a high mass star explodes, the leftover material forms a remnant called a neutron star or a black hole. If the core of the star is less than about 3 times the mass of the Sun, it collapses to form a neutron star. If the core is more massive, it collapses further, causing the gravitational collapse to form a black hole.
What is the significance of 3 solar masses in a star's fate?
After a high-mass star explodes as supernova and leaves a core behind, the core would become a neutron star or a black hole. If the core is less than 3 solar masses, it would become a neutron star; if the mass exceeds 3 solar masses, the core would continue to collapse, forming a black hole.
Produced when the outer core of a star explodes after the core collapse?
A black hole or a neutron star, depending on the mass of the remaining core. Also a lot of material is ejected into space.
Is juveline star a low mass star or a high mass star?
It may be either. Juvenile means young.
Is the sun a low mass or high mass star and which stage is it in?
The Sun is a medium mass star in main sequence.
What makes a high mass star's core collapse?
the high mass star's core collapse because its gravity
What makes a high-mass stars core collapse?
the high mass star's core collapse because its gravity
What cause a neutron star to form?
The strong gravity of the core of a dead high-mass star causes a neutron star to form. When the high-mass star becomes a supernova and leaves a core behind, the core no longer undergo fusion. Without fusion, gravity starts to push the core inward until most protons and electrons are crushed into neutrons, a neutron star forms. If the core is too massive, the neutron star would collapse and become a black hole.

Is the Rigel star a high mass star or a low mass star?
High mass.

What determines the temperature in the core of a star?
The star's mass determines the temperature in its core. A stars mass will also determined it size and the amount of gravitational pull it will have.
What is a star that explodes in supernova what does its core become?
Depending on the Mass of the core, they either become a Neutron Star or a Black Hole.
What is the left over mass of a high mass star called?
A high mass star will leave behind either a neutron star of a black hole.
Is rigel a high or low mass star?
High mass.
Why the temperature of the stars vary from one another?
The temperature in the core of a star depends, to a great extent, on:* The star's mass. The general tendency is that high-mass stars are hotter. * Where the star is in its life cycle. The star's core temperature will vary over time. On the other hand, the star's surface temperature also depends on its size. Thus, it is possible that PRECISELY because a star is hotter in the core, it gets bigger, and the surface temperature DECREASES (though its total energy output increases).
Is the sun a high mass star?
no the sun is a medium mass star.
