cds-question@unistra.frsupernovaeThe progenitors of many Type II core-collapse supernovae (SNe) have now been identified directly on pre-discovery imaging. Here, we present an extensive search for the progenitors of Type Ibc SNe in all available pre-discovery imaging since 1998. There are 12 Type Ibc SNe with no detections of progenitors in either deep ground-based or Hubble Space Telescope archival imaging. The deepest absolute BVR magnitude limits are between -4 and -5mag. We compare these limits with the observed Wolf-Rayet population in the Large Magellanic Cloud and estimate a 16 percent probability that we have failed to detect such a progenitor by chance. Alternatively, the progenitors evolve significantly before core-collapse or we have underestimated the extinction towards the progenitors. Reviewing the relative rates and ejecta mass estimates from light-curve modelling of Ibc SNe, we find both incompatible with Wolf-Rayet stars with initial masses >25M_{sun}_ being the only progenitors. We present binary evolution models that fit these observational constraints. Stars in binaries with initial masses <~20M_{sun}_ lose their hydrogen envelopes in binary interactions to become low-mass helium stars. They retain a low-mass hydrogen envelope until ~10^4^yr before core-collapse; hence, it is not surprising that Galactic analogues have been difficult to identify.2013MNRAS.436..774Ehttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/436/774CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toB/sn : Asiago Supernova Catalogue (Barbon et al., 1999-)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/436/774https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/436/774http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/436/774https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/436/774https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/436/774http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/436/774GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/436/774/tablea1 (Core collapse SNe discovered between 1998-2012.25 in galaxies with recessional velocities less than 2000km/s)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/436/774/tablea1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/436/774/tablea1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/436/774/tablea1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true167.4597083-23.72863890.0055555555555555566/611 909 2372 3860-3861 3929 4447 5200 5244 5492 5504 5587 5589 5629 5715 5751 5797 5925 5975 5999 6048 6082 7241 7385-7386 7424 7534 7584 7606 7743 8085 8106 8195 8256 9437 10475 10632 10684 10892 10905 10927 10935 10991 11000 11027 11246-11247 11434-11435 11769 12015 12018 15592-15593 15847 15955 16120 16194 16441 16453 17245 17340 17509 17592 17594 17614 17761 18398 19710 20046 20722 20739 21109 21198 22751 23528 24878 24949 24957 25127 25344 25353 25438 25452 25513 25599 25763 25788 25958 25960 25999 26068 26234 26303 26309 26336 26432 27285 27426 27458 27512 27514-27515 27588 27643 27727 27766 27828 27855 27907 27948 27955 28035 28045 28123 28167 28213 28348 28517 28631 30970 31882 33228 33958 34326 34361 34493 34531 34534 34701 35499 35536 35966 35993 36045 36081 36131 36213 36245 36287 36450 36789 37267 37429 37436 38655 38956 38985 39201 39836 39858 40424 40454 40458 40712 43233 43325 43342 43662 44000 44203 44915 45748 46477 46491 46542 46568 46999https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/436/774?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/MNRAS/436/774/tablea1Core collapse SNe discovered between 1998-2012.25 in galaxies with recessional velocities less than 2000km/sSimbadNameSimbad column added by the CDSmeta.idcharSNSN namemeta.id;meta.maincharrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
