Exoplanet Orbit Database (astroquery.exoplanet_orbit_database
)¶
Accessing the planet table¶
You can access the complete tables from each table source, with units assigned to columns wherever possible.
>>> from astroquery.exoplanet_orbit_database import ExoplanetOrbitDatabase
>>> eod_table = ExoplanetOrbitDatabase.get_table()
>>> eod_table[:2]
<QTable length=2>
A AUPPER ... NAME_LOWERCASE sky_coord
AU AU ... deg,deg
float64 float64 ... str19 SkyCoord
--------- ----------- ... -------------- -----------------------------------
0.0780099 0.00130017 ... kepler-107d 297.0282083332539,48.20861111111111
0.0344721 0.000675924 ... kepler-1049b 287.3467499971389,47.7729444445504
You can query for the row from each table corresponding to one exoplanet:
>>> from astroquery.exoplanet_orbit_database import ExoplanetOrbitDatabase
>>> hatp11b = ExoplanetOrbitDatabase.query_planet('HAT-P-11 b')
Properties of a particular planet¶
The properties of each planet are stored in a table, with columns defined by
the Exoplanet Orbit Database. There
is also a special column of sky coordinates for each target, named sky_coord
.
>>> from astroquery.exoplanet_orbit_database import ExoplanetOrbitDatabase
>>> hatp11b = ExoplanetOrbitDatabase.query_planet('HAT-P-11 b')
>>> hatp11b['PER'] # Planet period
<MaskedQuantity 4.8878162 d>
>>> hatp11b['R'] # Planet radius
<MaskedQuantity 0.422 jupiterRad>
>>> hatp11b['sky_coord'] # Position of host star
<SkyCoord (ICRS): (ra, dec) in deg
(297.70890417, 48.08029444)>
