Limb-darkening for CoRoT, Kepler, Spitzer
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
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.
Description
To provide theoretical inputs for light curve modelling codes, we present new calculations of limb-darkening coefficients for the spherically symmetric PHOENIX models. The limb-darkening coefficients were computed by covering the transmission curves of Kepler, CoRoT, and Spitzer space missions, as well as the passbands of the Stromgren, Johnson-Cousins, Sloan, and 2MASS.
These computations adopted the least-square method. In addition, we also calculated the linear and bi-parametric approximations by adopting the flux conservation method as an additional tool for estimating the theoretical error bars in the limb-darkening coefficients. Six laws were used to describe the specific intensity distribution: linear, quadratic, square root, logarithmic, exponential, and a more general one with 4 terms.

The computations are presented for the solar chemical composition, with logg varying between 2.5 and 5.5 and effective temperatures between 1500K-4800K. The adopted Microturbulent velocity and the mixing-length parameters are 2.0km/s and 2.0, respectively. Model are for solar metallicity.
