There is no difference in the light curve for a hypernova and the light curve for a supernovaII; the two events are distinguished from other properties.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

While both hypernovae and supernovae II have similar light curves, they can be distinguished from other properties such as the strength of their spectral features and the total energy released during the explosion. While both hypernovae and supernovae have similar light curves at the beginning, the light curve of a hypernova has a distinctive bump in the ultraviolet radiation, which is not present in a supernovaII. This is due to the additional energy released during the explosion of a hypernova.
