Notes. The parameters are: the dimensionless fluid number α, the dimensionless drag frequency ωdrag, the Spitzer IRAC channel corresponding to the remaining quantities (Channel 1 is centered on 3.6 μm, Channel 2 is centered on 4.5 μm), the integrated day side temperature Td, integrated nightside temperature Tn, the Bond albedo AB, the heat redistribution efficiency ε, the phase offset Δϕ, and the power in the first spherical harmonic term C11. Reported uncertainties assume the stellar effective temperature is known precisely.
