Notes. (a) The parameters and errors are initially taken or computed from the extended data table 3 in Gaudi et al. (2017). (b) Updated values from Hoeijmakers et al. (2019). (c)Updated values from Borsa et al. (2019). (d)Updated values from this work. (e)For the planetary equilibrium temperature Teq and the lower atmosphere scale-height H0, we assume an albedo A = 0, a redistribution factor f = 1 and a mean molecular weight μatm = 1.3 (atomic H and He atmosphere). We also consider the planet distance to the stellar surface to be o = aR.
