CONAN.utils.get_orbital_elements.get_Rsky(aR=None, inc=None)#

Get the projected distance of the planet from the star in the orbital plane following the equations in Winn 2010 (https://arxiv.org/abs/1001.2010). Also return mask of transit and eclipse phases.

Parameters:
  • aR (float, None;) – semi-major axis over stellar radius

  • inc (float, None;) – inclination in radians

Returns:

  • rsky (array-like) – projected distance of the planet from the star in the orbital plane

  • y (array-like) – coordinates of the planet in the orbital plane. y>=0 is the transit phase.
