Optimising a magnitude-limited spectroscopic training sample for photometric classification of supernovae

Jonathan E. Carrick, Isobel M. Hook, Elizabeth Swann +4

In preparation for photometric classification of transients from the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) we run tests with different training data sets. Using estimates of the d…
