- Author contribution statement
- I reduced and analysed the photometric and spectroscopic data, and contributed to analysis, text and figures. Specifically, I made and analysed the bolometric evolution used in Figure 3 and contributed to the writing of paragraphs 4, 6 and 8 of the main text. I wrote the bolometric light curve section in the methods. I reduced the data triggered by ePESSTO (optical and NIR photometry and optical spectroscopy (+1.4d and +3.4d). I contributed to the analysis of the spectra and the comparison analysis presented in the methods (extended data Figure 1 and 3).
