Detecting the progenitors of core collapse supernovae
S. J. Smartt
The masses and the evolutionary states of the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae are not well constrained by direct observations. Stellar evolution theory generally predicts t…

The nature of the progenitor of the Type II-P supernova 1999em
S. J. Smartt, G. F. Gilmore, C. A. Tout +1
We present high quality ground-based VRI images of the site of the Type II-P SN1999em (in NGC1637) taken before explosion, which were extracted from the CFHT archive. We determine…

An upper mass limit for the progenitor of the TypeII-P supernova SN1999gi
S. J. Smartt, G. F. Gilmore, N. Trentham +2
Masses and progenitor evolutionary states of TypeII supernovae remain almost unconstrained by direct observations. Only one robust observation of a progenitor (SN1987A) and one pla…
