- Abstract
We present a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of the V band light-curves of a sample of more than 100 nearby Core collapse supernovae (CC SNe) from [Anderson et al. (2014)]. We used different reference epochs in order to extract the common properties of these light-curves and searched for correlations to some physical parameters such as the burning of 56Ni, and morphological light-curve parameters such as the length of the plateau, the stretch of the light-curve, and the decrements in brightness after maximum and after the plateau. We also used these similarities to create SNe II light-curve templates that will be used in the future for standardize these objects and determine cosmological distances.
