چکیده
We provide here tables of stellar limb-darkening coefficients (LDCs) for the Ariel ESA M4 space mission. These include LDCs corresponding to different wavelength bins and white bands NIRSpec, AIRS-Ch0 AIRS-Ch1 spectrographs, those VISPhot, FGS1 FGS2 photometers. The are calculated with open-source software ExoTETHyS three complete grids atmosphere models obtained ATLAS9 PHOENIX codes. model complementary, as code adopts more modern input physics spherical geometry, while cover wider ranges parameters. from in compared main text. All together following effective temperature ($1\,500 \, K \le T_{\mbox{eff}} 50\,000 K$), surface gravity (0.0 dex $\le \log{g} 6.0$ dex), metallicity ($-5.0 [M/H] 1.0$).

Computing Limb Darkening Coefficients from Stellar Atmosphere Models
We explore the sensitivity of limb darkening coefficients computed from stellar atmosphere models to different least-squares fitting methods. We demonstrate that conventional methods are strongly biased to fitting the stellar limb. Our suggested method of fitting by minimizing the radially integrated squared residual yields improved fits with better flux conservation. The differences of the obt...
متن کاملMeasuring Stellar Limb Darkening by Gravitational Microlensing
Observations of microlensing transit events can be used to measure the limb darkening of the lensed star. We discuss the advantages and drawbacks of several microlensing light curve inversion methods. The method of choice in this work is inversion by means of decomposition of the stellar surface brightness profile. We construct an ideal basis by principal component analysis of brightness profil...
متن کاملNew limb-darkening coefficients for PHOENIX/1D model atmospheres
Aims. The knowledge of how the specific intensity is distributed over the stellar disk is crucial for interpreting the light curves of extrasolar transiting planets, double-lined eclipsing binaries, and other astrophysical phenomena. To provide theoretical inputs for light curve modelling codes, we present new calculations of limb-darkening coefficients for the spherically symmetric phoenixmode...
متن کاملAsymmetries in Limb Darkening
The cause of the asymmetries in limb darkening reported by Neckel and Labs (1987) is discussed on the basis of new, stray-light-free observations, and found to be of instrumental origin.
متن کاملUsing Stellar Limb-Darkening to Refine the Properties of HD 209458b
We use multi-band photometry to refine estimates for the planetary radius and orbital inclination of the transiting planet system HD 209458. We gathered 1066 spectra over four distinct transits with the STIS spectrometer on the Hubble Space Telescope using two gratings with a resolution R = 1500 and a combined wavelength range of 290− 1030 nm. We divide the spectra into ten spectrophotometric b...
