Synthetic passbands 400 nm (cyan) and 520 nm (green) plotted with SN2011ke spectrum at ~10 days scaled in flux (gray) at rest frame and at projected distances of z = 1 (upper left corner), z = 2 (upper right corner), z = 3 (bottom left corner), and z = 4 (bottom corner). Sloan u (purple), g (green), r (bronze), i (burgundy), and z (oak brown) bandpasses are displayed along the near-infrared Y (gold) and the 2MASS J (orange), H (red), and K (brown) bandpasses. Also plotted in gray is the atmospheric transmission in the NIR (Lord 1992; courtesy of Gemini Observatory).
