Notes. Two solutions are presented: Col. 2 gives that using the main-sequence constraint, while Col. 3 give that without this constraint. The planet equilibrium temperature, TP, assumes a Bond albedo of A = 0 and even redistribution of heat around the planet. Limb-darkening coefficients for the ms solution were for WASP a1 = 0.441, a2 = 0.599, a3 = −0.514 and a4 = 0.150 and TRAPPIST (z′) a1 = 0.517, a2 = 0.202, a3 = −0.181 and a4 = 0.025, while for the non-ms solution they were for WASP a1 = 0.447, a2 = 0.566, a3 = −0.459 and a4 = 0.126 and TRAPPIST (z′) a1 = 0.523, a2 = 0.172, a3 = −0.133 and a4 = 0.004.
