When a star of mass comparable to the Sun dies, it becomes a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole depending on the mass of the star. For stars with masses up to 1.4 times that of the Sun, they become a white dwarf. For stars with masses between 1.4 and 3 times that of the Sun, they become a neutron star. Only stars with masses greater than 3 times that of the Sun can become a black hole.
