Scientific paper

We present a selection of very well time-sampled optical light curves andspectra of type Ib and Ic supernovae (SNe) from the CfA database, takenwith the F. L. Whipple Observatory telescopes and with the Magellan ClayTelescope. The data begin as early as two weeks before maximum light and goto late times, when the supernovae enter the nebular phase (several monthsafter maximum to one year). We discuss general properties of thispopulation of core-collapse supernovae, including their luminositydistribution, light-curve shapes, and any photometric and spectroscopicrelationships. We present implications for the progenitor make-up and SNexplosion, including data and the theoretical interpretation of SN2005bf, a unique Type Ib/c SN.This work has been supported in part by the National Science Foundation.
