Exclusion of a Direct Progenitor Detection for the Type Ic SN 2017ein Based on Late-time Observations

To date, SN 2017ein is the only Type Ic supernova with a directly identified progenitor candidate. This candidate points to a very massive (>45 M _⊙ ) Wolf–Rayet (WR) progenitor, but its disappearance after the explosion of SN 2017ein remains unconfirmed. In this work, we revisit SN 2017ein in late-...
