Notes. The estimates correspond to the posterior median with the uncertainties based on the 16th and 84th posterior percentiles. (a)The equilibrium temperature is calculated using the stellar Teff estimate, scaled semi-major axis distribution, heat redistribution factor distributed uniformly between 0.25 and 0.5, and albedo distributed uniformly between 0 and 0.4.
