Top panel: Absolute g-band light curve of SN 2023gpw (black) compared to other SLSNe II. We include the SLSNe II presented by Kangas et al. (2022) (gray), the prototypical SN 2008es (purple; Gezari et al. 2009; Miller et al. 2009), CSS121015 (Benetti et al. 2014), and the two SLSNe II presented by Inserra et al. (2018) (SN 2013hx in teal and PS15br in red). Bottom panel: Same but in the r-band. A pronounced steepening in the r-band light curve, such as that in SN 2023gpw at some point before ∼ + 200 d, is not observed in other SLSNe II, though it is not excluded in some objects whose light curves do not continue this long. In both panels, the zero epoch corresponds to the g-band peak.
