Scientific paper

Photometric properties of type I supernovae (SN I) are reviewed. Attention is given to average light and color curves of SN I and characteristics of the 'fast' and 'slow' subtypes. Correlations are examined whereby fast SN I are seldom observed in early-type galaxies, slow SN I do not occur in irregular galaxies, and both types are present in spirals. The photometric reality of the two subtypes is considered, and determinations of the absolute magnitude of SN I at maximum and its dispersion are discussed. It is concluded that, when the appropriate corrections are applied, there is no difference in the absolute luminosities of SN I that occur in galaxies of different morphological types.
