Scientific paper

Star evolution at constant mass is typically considered as well defined, given initial mass and composition. However, in the stellar mass range of 8-10 solar masses, large uncertainties as to the treatment of convection and hydrodynamical burning or concerning electron captures exist. They are the key to the issue of whether electron captures induce star collapse or the star is disrupted by a deflagration. The final fate of the star strongly depends, therefore, on the adopted treatment for those problems.
