Light curves of our SLSN Ic sample listed in Table 1. The absolute magnitudes, M(400), are for the 400 nm band after K correction. Time dilation has been applied to report the phase in rest-frame days with respect to maximum light. Polynomial fits to the photometry of the 16 SNe are shown as broken lines. The line fits are all third-order polynomials, apart from SN2011kf and SCP06F6 (second-order polynomials) and CSS121015 (fourth-order polynomial). The objects are split into two panels simply for clarity and illustration purposes.
