Ratio of the total mass of 28Si and 24Mg at the onset of core collapse as a function of the reference core mass for single (blue) and binary-stripped (red) progenitors. Models with a ratio below one experience shell mergers (gray region). In our models, the occurrence of shell mergers is related to the helium core mass after helium burning.
