Scientific paper

Using primarily the Hubble Space Telescope we have been identifying themassive progenitor stars that give rise to core-collapse supernovae, whichis one of the main pursuits of supernova and stellar evolutionstudies. Prime examples of this are the Type II-plateau supernovae SN2003gd in M74 and SN 2005cs in M51. Upper limits on progenitor masses forboth Type II and Type Ib/c supernovae have also been established using HSTimage data by us and by other groups. I would summarize this work and whatwe know to date.
