Comparison of the BVR light curves of SN 2024bch (blue dots) with those of SN 2009kr and SN 2013fc (dashed red and green curves, respectively). The data for SN 2009kr and SN 2013fc are scaled to match SN 2024bch and interpolated over the same time interval using GP interpolation (see the main text for details). Additionally, we show a reference curve representing a decay of 1 magnitude between t_max and t₅₀.
