CHAPTER 6. JOINT MODELLING OF TRANSIT AND STELLAR TEMPERATURE USING AN <strong>MCMC</strong> APPROACH 176<br />

Figure 6.3: The 2D <strong>MCMC</strong> chains with no prior on the T eff , <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> their posterior distributions.<br />

The chains are 1479000 steps long. Same colour line legend as Figure 6.2.<br />

Figure 6.4: The posterior distributions <strong>of</strong> a/R <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> i derived from the posterior distributions<br />

<strong>of</strong> k <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> b. The posterior distributions <strong>of</strong> T eff , M <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> R derived from k, are shown<br />

for comparison with Figure 6.7. Same colour line legend as Figure 6.2.
