Abstract
PESSTO (Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects) began in April 2012 on the New Technology Telescope using the instruments EFOSC2 and SOFI. We typically target supernovae and optical transients brighter than 20.5m for classification and select science targets for detailed follow-up. We use standard EFOSC2 setups providing spectra with resolutions of 13-17Å between 3650-9995Å. A subset of the brighter science targets are selected for SOFI spectroscopy with the blue and red Grisms (resolutions 23-33Å) and imaging with broadband JHKs filters. This catalogue data release provides photometric lightcurve coverage for the PESSTO targets for which follow-up lightcurves have been completed. Photometric lightcurves for a total of 18 objects are provided in this initial release. (2 data files).
