TEPCat: catalogue of the physical properties of transiting planetary systems

TEPCat is a catalogue of the physical properties of the known transiting extrasolar planet and brown dwarf systems, which now consists of four parts. All parts are available as HTML tables, with and without errorbars, and machine-readable ASCII and CSV files for detailed analysis. The data come from my Homogeneous Studies of Transiting Extrasolar Planets papers, augmented by carefully selected results from the literature. TEPCat is comparatively new, and additional resources are still being added.

Part 1 is a critical compilation of the physical properties of the known transiting planets. I include results from refereed journal papers and from the arXiv preprint server. Results from my Homogeneous studies papers are given where appropriate.

Part 2 is a summation of the results of my series of papers on the Homogeneous studies of transiting extrasolar planets. The first table of results gives the measured quantities for each planetary system from the spectra and light curves:

The second table of results gives the final physical properties of each system. Most have been determined using constraints from stellar theory. In these cases I give both statistical and systematic errorbars.

Part 3: is for planning observations. I provide a table of basic observable quantities of transiting planetary systems which are useful for planning follow-up observations: sky position, V magnitude, transit depth and duration, and the most recent orbital ephemerides.

Part 4: is a catalogue of measurements of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect. This gives the projected angle between the orbital axis of the planet and the spin axis of the star, and is useful in understanding the formation and dynamical evolution of planetary systems.
