Kepler-62 System Parameters (Table 1 from discovery paper):
Table 1. Characteristics of the Kepler-62 planetary system.
Notes: 1) T0 is the epoch in mid-transit in Barycentric Julian Days, P is the period, duration is the transit duration, “depth” is the percent reduction of the flux during the transits determined from the model fit to the data, Rp/R* is the ratio of the radius of the planet to the radius of the star, a/R* is the ratio of the planet’s semi-major axis to the stellar radius, b is the impact parameter in units of stellar radius, i is the orbital inclination, ecosω is the product of the orbital eccentricity e with the cosine of the periapse angle ω, a is the semi-major axis, and Rp is the radius of the planet, and Maximum Mass is the upper limit to the mass based on transiting timing and RV observations, M⊕ is the mass of the Earth, and Teq is the radiative equilibrium temperature.
2) The values of the uncertainties are ±1 standard deviation unless otherwise noted.
3) Values for the maximum mass are for the 95th percentile.
4) A second set of values for the planetary parameters was computed by an independent model and found to be in good agreement with the listed values.
