Abstract
The MACRO experiment has been running as a supernova neutrino detector since 1989 and is sensitive to the whole galaxy since the beginning o f 1992. A galactic supernova would produce some hundreds of <(nu)over bar (e)> events in the detector, We describe our stellar gravitational collapse online monitors and alarm system, and present the results of a search for neutrino bursts from supernovae during a period of 1.5 y r.
