Best-fit blackbody temperatures (top) and radii (middle) for our events and for the Type II SNe 1993J (from Richmond et al. 1994; explosion date from Filippenko et al. 1993) and 1998S (from Fassia et al. 2000; explosion date from Chugai 2001) for comparison. The resulting blackbody bolometric luminosities are shown in the bottom panel. Our events show similar blackbody evolution among themselves. They have temperatures between those of the partially hydrogen-stripped IIb SN 1993J and the hydrogen-rich SN 1998S, but show more extended blackbody radii than both comparison events.
