Abstract

This dataset and accompanying conceptual framework present a computational approach to evaluate the final states of massive stellar remnants following supernova events. By integrating observable stellar parameters and generalized physical thresholds, the calculator allows for predictions of whether a stellar remnant evolves into a dense compact object of one type or another. The methodology is designed to provide a reproducible, parameter-driven evaluation tool without revealing proprietary mechanical or theoretical details underlying the physical model. This work serves as a reference framework for comparative astrophysical studies and educational applications, offering insights into stellar evolution outcomes in a generalized and secure format.Keywords / Hashtags (IP-safe):#StellarEvolution #CompactObjects #NeutronStars #BlackHoles #SupernovaPrediction #AstrophysicsTools #DataDrivenAstrophysics #ScientificCalculator #CosmicRemnants #StellarFate
