After the red giant stage in its cycle, depending on its
mass would determine how the star will end up. For stars greater than 1 solar
mass but less than 2 solar masses, the hydrogen burning shell consumes its way
outward leaving behind more helium ash. As helium piles up, the core becomes
bigger and then contracts. By contracting, it becomes warmer to the point that
the electrons degenerate. From gas, it will then become liquid becoming
incompressible and further contraction stops.
