Scientific paper

I present the supernova rates computed from the Mount Stromlo Abell Cluster SN Search (MSACSS) and the High-Z SN Search, two CCD-based searches which use difference imaging techniques. These searches are approximately magnitude-limited with well-defined selection functions, unlike previous visual and photographic surveys which have suffered from selection problems such as deficiencies near the centers of galaxies, poorly-understood detection limits, or preferential treatment of field regions of high galaxy density. The SN samples collected from field galaxies at z<0.2 from the MSACSS ( ~ 60 squ-degree-years to mV ~ 20), rich Abell clusters at 0.02
