Scientific paper

We present a short overview of a systematic study performed on supernovae (SN) in the Local Universe, collected from the IAU circulars. We estimate empirical selection biases on the host galaxy and SN detection luminosities. The correction of these biases enables us to derive SN rates and to study their dependency with the galaxy luminosity. We show for the first time a clear correlation of the number of detected supernovae with the LB luminosity of the host galaxy. We do not detect any significant difference in this correlation between type-Ia and core-collapse SN.
