The Infrared Supernova Rate . To derive the number of SNe expected in our ground-based data and calculate the IR supernova rate , we have to derive a relation between the luminosity of the galaxies and their Star Formation Rate (SFR) and the shape of the "mean" K-band light curve for a core-collapse SN. ... Rates are generally normalized to the luminosity of the parent galaxy, either the B luminosity of L(FIR). ... For comments please contact: gcresci@arcetri.astro.it . ...
