Notes.

(a)

Reported times are in Barycentric Julian Date calculated directly from UTC, without correction for leap seconds. Tc: reference epoch of mid transit that minimizes the correlation with the orbital period. T14: total transit duration, time between first to last contact; T12 = T34: ingress/egress time, time between first and second, or third and fourth contact.

(b)

Reciprocal of the half duration of the transit used as a jump parameter in our MCMC analysis in place of a/R. It is related to a/R by the expression (Bakos et al. 2010).

(c)

Values for a quadratic law, adopted from the tabulations by Claret (2004) according to the spectroscopic (SPC) parameters listed in Table 5.

(d)

Correlation coefficient between the planetary mass Mp and radius Rp.

(e)

Planet equilibrium temperature averaged over the orbit, calculated assuming a Bond albedo of zero, and that flux is re-radiated from the full planet surface.

(f)

The Safronov number is given by (see Hansen & Barman 2007).

(g)

Incoming flux per unit surface area, averaged over the orbit.
