Table 2.

Number of transits required to reach 50 ppm min−1 noise level with CHEOPS and PLATO for different stellar magnitudes.

CHEOPS
PLATO
mV Noise/min # transits mV Noise/min # transits
6.5 150 ppm 9 8 62 ppm 2
8 186 ppm 14 10 209 ppm 17
10 319 ppm 40 11 263 ppm 28
12 855 ppm 293 13 619 ppm 153

Notes.

Noise levels of CHEOPS were obtained from CHEOPS science team (priv. comm.) and that for PLATO was converted to ppm min−1 from Rauer et al. 2014 (Table 2 and Fig. 14).
