Abstract

Observational and theoretical constraints which apply to models of the precursor star before and at the time of explosion are presented. Stellar evolution sequences for the precursor star produced by various authors are described, and an attempt is made to define what these sequences tell us about the evolution of star of mass ∼ 20 M.
