Supernova rates and Host galaxies properties in the Local Universe
Abstract
The explosion of supernovae is closely related to star formation. In this work, we study the star formation properties of the host galaxies of known supernovae and whether supernovae could trace burst of stellar formation. We investigate a Local Sample of known supernovae and discuss its extrapolation to high-z counter-parts.
