Extended Data Table 2. Quadratic limb-darkening coefficients.

These values and errors for the quadratic coefficients u1 and u2 were inferred for TRAPPIST-1 from theoretical tables63, and used as a priori knowledge of the stellar limb-darkening in the global MCMC analysis of the transit light curves. The error bars were obtained by propagation of the errors on the stellar gravity, metallicity, and effective temperature.
