Scientific paper

In addition to over two hundred spectroscopically confirmed supernovae (SNe), the SDSS-II SN Survey has discovered a comparable number of SN candidates that were not followed up spectroscopically during the Fall search seasons. We describe our procedures for defining this photometric SN sample and discuss its possible use for studying SN rates and correlations between SN and host galaxy properties, and the potential role of purely photometrically observed supernovae as cosmological distance indicators. We also comment on the subsample of SN candidates for which we have obtained an optical spectrum and redshift of the host galaxy.
