Abstract:

We present the first preliminary results of a cross correlation between the 4B GRB catalog and the catalog of supernovae detected in the same time period. No restrictions and/or limitations have been applied. The goal is to select SNe which may, in fact, represent unrecognized optical afterglows of GRBs.

Key words: gamma-ray: bursts
