Notes. For both low- and intermediate-mass stars (li, progenitors of AGBs) and massive stars (m, progenitors of SNcc and PISNe), the mass ranges depend on the initial metallicity (Z_init) of the stellar population. The upper mass limit of intermediate-mass stars, defined as the minimum mass for the off-centre carbon ignition to occur, is limier for lower metallicity (Umeda & Nomoto 2002; Gil-Pons et al. 2007; Siess 2007). The upper mass limit of massive stars depends on the types of supernovae that are taken into account. Massive stars that explode as core-collapse supernovae (with m_up = 40 M_⊙ for Z ≠ 0 and an explosion energy of 10⁴⁴ J) and pair-instability supernovae (with m_up = 300 M_⊙ and an explosion energy greater than 10⁴⁴ J) are considered here.
