In order to explore various aspects of stellar evolution, supernovae, gamma ray bursts and nucleosynthesis, we have developed a new efficient stellar evolution code. In this paper we describe this new code and compare the results with the ones calculated by the previous code. Specifically we focus on the progenitor evolution of lower end of the Fe-core collapse supernovae, and mass distribution of remnant neutron stars. We describe how different assumptions will lead different neutron star mass distribution. We also review recent works of our research group.
