We report the results of an extensive photometric follow-up of iPTFebh supernova (ATEL#5580, ATEL#5584) classified as type Ia at z=0.013269, located in NGC 890. The telescopes involved in the follow-up operated in the preparatory mode for the forthcoming Gaia Science Alerts follow-up network.

The photometric data were collected with a range of telescopes, instruments and filters, but were all calibrated to common pass bands of B, V, g, r and i using APASS all-sky star catalogue (Henden et al.2009). The light curve contains about 130 data points and covers a range of about 35 days with the first observations taken on the day of the discovery announcement (1 day after the detection). The lightcurves in different bands are shown here: http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/~wyrzykow/iPTF13ebh_followup.pdf

The lightcurves were fitted with the SALT2 fitter (Guy et al. 2010) with the following parameters:
Color= 0.0455 +-0.445
X1= -2.336 +-0.620
Peak= 56623.6 +-4.5
The models for different bands are available here:

The photometric calibrations were obtained using the Cambridge Photometric Calibration Server (CPCS), designed and maintained by Sergey Koposov and Lukasz Wyrzykowski. More info on CPCS: http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/ioa/wikis/gsawgwiki/index.php/Follow-up
