Abstract

SN 2011fe is the closest and brightest Type Ia supernova in the digital imaging era and thus provides the richest data. We present UBVRI photometry of SN 2011fe for a span of ~180 days after the optical maximum. This paper contains measurements made at SOAO, LOAO, and SNUO and also includes data from a small telescope in Mongolia. We compare the results with the ones obtained by Richmond & Smith (2012) and Vinko et al. (2012).
