Neutron Star
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".
Our Sun is currently a main sequence star. It is not a supernova, as supernovae are massive explosions that occur at the end of a star's life cycle, and it is not a white dwarf, which is a type of star that has exhausted its nuclear fuel and collapsed to a very dense state.
A white dwarf supernova occurs when a white dwarf star in a binary system accretes material from a companion star, causing it to exceed the Chandrasekhar limit (1.4 solar masses). The core then undergoes a runaway nuclear fusion reaction, leading to a catastrophic explosion that destroys the white dwarf.
No. When the sun dies it will expel its outer layers in a series of gradual pulses and leave behind a white dwarf.
No, the sun does not have enough mass to end its life in a supernova explosion. Instead, it will eventually expand into a red giant and then shed its outer layers to form a planetary nebula, leaving behind a small, dense core called a white dwarf. This process will happen in about 5 billion years.

I think that's a pulsar.

When the layers escape into space, this is classified as a planetary nebula. What usually is left behind is a white dwarf.
A small dead star is typically a white dwarf, which is the leftover core of a star that was not massive enough to become a supernova. White dwarfs are very dense, about the size of Earth but with the mass of a star.
White Dwarf.
A white dwarf supernova occurs when a white dwarf star in a binary system accretes material from a companion star, causing it to exceed the Chandrasekhar limit (1.4 solar masses). The core then undergoes a runaway nuclear fusion reaction, leading to a catastrophic explosion that destroys the white dwarf.
