Abstract
We give a relation between two theories of improper intersections, of Tworzewski and of Stückrad–Vogel, for the case of algebraic curves. Given two arbitrary quasiprojective curves $V_{1},V_{2}$, the intersection cycle $V_{1}\bullet V_{2}$ in the sense of Tworzewski turns out to be the rational part of the Vogel cycle $v(V_{1},V_{2})$. We also give short proofs of two known effective formulae for the intersection cycle $V_{1}\bullet V_{2}$ in terms of local parametrizations of the curves.
