Scientific paper

We present two transients from the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS), both similar to the mystery transient SCP-06F6. All have broad, previously unidentified lines and i and z lightcurves that rise over 100 days in the observer frame. New discoveries by the Palomar Transient Factory provide the missing link, revealing that these transients are in fact among the most luminous known supernovae. In addition to i and z photometry, the SNLS objects have complete g and r lightcurves, essential information in understanding this emerging class of explosions.
