What is the typical mass range of stars that undergo collapse to form a Neutron Star remnant?

Stars typically ranging from about eight to twenty times the mass of our Sun

The formation pathway leading to a neutron star begins with progenitor stars that possess a specific mass profile during their active lives. These giant stars must have been born with initial masses generally situated between eight times and twenty times the mass of our Sun. If the star is less massive than this lower boundary, it typically evolves into a white dwarf. If the collapsing core mass after the supernova exceeds the upper threshold for a neutron star, the collapse proceeds further into a black hole. This specific mass range dictates the star's fate, enabling the core collapse to stop precisely at the neutron degenerate matter stage.
