Scientific paper
We will present the results of our analysis of Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and deep ground-based images, to isolate the massive progenitor stars of several stripped-envelope supernovae (SNe), e.g., the highly-extinguished Type Ic SNe 2003jg in NGC 2997 and 2004cc in NGC 4568. Despite the fact that, generally, the progenitors are not directly detected, our analysis can help characterize, e.g., the dusty environments in which the stars exploded and, therefore, provides constraints on the nature of the progenitors.
