(the late stage in the life cycle of a massive star
in which the core heats up, heavy elements formed
by fusion, and expands; it can eventually explode
to what scientist call a supernova.)

When a large star collapses in a supernova, it can produce either a neutron star or a black hole, depending on the mass of the original star. A neutron star forms when the core of the star collapses but the outer layers are ejected, while a black hole forms when the core collapses completely.
When a star explodes in a supernova, its core can collapse into either a neutron star or a black hole, depending on the mass of the original star. For stars with masses less than about 3 times that of the Sun, the core collapses into a neutron star, which is an extremely dense and compact object. For more massive stars, the core collapses further into a singularity, forming a black hole.
A star explodes in a supernova when it exhausts its nuclear fuel, leading to a breakdown of the balance between gravitational forces and internal pressure. In massive stars, the core collapses under gravity, causing temperatures and pressures to rise drastically, resulting in a rapid fusion of heavier elements. This culminates in a catastrophic release of energy, expelling the outer layers into space and leaving behind a neutron star or black hole. In less massive stars, the explosion can occur as a planetary nebula, shedding outer layers while the core remains as a white dwarf.
the outer core is 2300 km thick the inner core on the other hand is 1200 km thick.

The explosion (a supernova) produces a glowing cloud of gas (called a nebula) that slowly expands and dissipates (eg the crab nebula).
When a large star collapses in a supernova, it can produce either a neutron star or a black hole, depending on the mass of the original star. A neutron star forms when the core of the star collapses but the outer layers are ejected, while a black hole forms when the core collapses completely.
When a single high mass star explodes, it undergoes a supernova event. The core collapses inwards and then rebounds explosively, sending out a shockwave that ejects the outer layers of the star into space. This explosion can outshine an entire galaxy for a short period of time.
When a star explodes in a supernova, its core can collapse into either a neutron star or a black hole, depending on the mass of the original star. For stars with masses less than about 3 times that of the Sun, the core collapses into a neutron star, which is an extremely dense and compact object. For more massive stars, the core collapses further into a singularity, forming a black hole.
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.
A black hole or a neutron star, depending on the mass of the remaining core. Also a lot of material is ejected into space.
The outer core.
When the core of a super giant collapses, it can trigger a supernova explosion. The intense heat and pressure leads to the fusion of heavier elements and the release of a tremendous amount of energy, resulting in a massive explosion that can outshine entire galaxies for a short period of time. This explosion also disperses newly formed elements and enriches the surrounding space, playing a key role in the creation of new stars and planets.
