Light curves of PS1-12bwh. Epochs of spectroscopic observations are marked with dot-dashed vertical lines. Light curves of SN 2005hk in the natural system (Stritzinger et al. 2015) have been shifted in time and magnitude to match the light curves of PS1-12bwh, and are shown for comparison as dashed lines. Inset: absolute r-band magnitude light curves of PS1-12bwh and comparison objects used throughout this paper. We limit this comparison to ±20 d relative to r-band maximum as an indication of the rise and decline of these objects. With the exception of SN 2008ha, all objects have comparable decline rates in the r-band, from 0.60 (PS1-12bwh) to 0.70 (SN 2005hk, Stritzinger et al. 2015) and a spread of absolute peak magnitudes, from Mr ~ −17.3 (SN 2015H, Magee et al. 2016) to Mr ~ −18.6 (SN 2012Z, Stritzinger et al. 2015). These values can be compared with Mr ~ −19.24 for SNe Ia (Hicken et al. 2009). Data sources are listed in Table A.3.
