... stars

${\cal R}=R$and ${\cal Y}_i=y(1-R)$ for the notation in LF98. These two parameters are calculated in the formalism of the instantaneous recycling approximation.

...$M_\odot$)

We assumed the Salpeter IMF with the range from 0.1-120 $M_\odot$, but the difference in the higher mass cut has little influence on the SN rate.

... H99

See Fig. 3 of the paper. Although H99 examined "different IMF'', this difference only affects the values of ${\cal R}$ and ${\cal Y}_i$. Therefore, his result can be used to see the effect of varying ${\cal R}$ and ${\cal Y}_i$.
