Notes. The values given for the parameters derived from our MCMC analyses are medians and 1σ limits of the marginalized posterior probability distributions.

(a)

Using as priors the values derived from the spectroscopic analysis.

(b)

Using aR = 2.46  Rp(M/Mp)1/3 (Chandrasekhar 1987).

(c)

Assuming a null Bond albedo and an efficient heat distribution between both hemispheres.
