Similar to Figure 2, but for the bolometric (top) and pseudo-bolometric (i.e., optical: 3250–8900 Å; middle) luminosity from blackbody SED fits, along with their ratio, i.e., the optical-bolometric correction (bottom). Given only the optical coverage, the blackbody temperature and hence the bolometric luminosity are not well constrained in the early phase when the SED peaks in ultraviolet (≳10,000 K). Nevertheless, the optical-bolometric correction is roughly constant around the median over the bulk of the light curve, from roughly the peak to about 250 days (in this case).
