Descripción
We release the first grid of stellar limb-darkening coefficients (LDCs) and intensity profiles (IPs) computed by the consortium of the PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars (PLATO), the next medium-class (M3) mission under development by the European Space Agency to be launched in 2026. We have performed spectral synthesis with TurboSpectrum on a grid of MARCS model atmospheres. Finally, we adopted ExoTETHyS to convolve the high-resolution spectra (R = 2 × 105) with the state-of-the-art response functions for all the PLATO cameras, and computed the LDCs that best approximate the convolved IPs. In addition to the PLATO products, we provide new LDCs and IPs for the Kepler mission, based on the same grid of stellar atmospheric models and calculation procedures.
