Scientific paper

We review the observational status of the Supernova/Gamma-Ray Burst connection. Observations of long duration Gamma-ray bursts suggest that they are associated with bright SNe-Ic. However recent observations of GRB 060614 puzzle this scenario, pointing out the existence of long-duration Gamma-ray Burst not accompanied by a bright supernova. Current estimates of the SN and GRB rates yield a ratio GRB/SNe-Ibc in the range ~0.4%-3%.
