Descripción
We identify and characterize secondary eclipses in the original light
curves of published CoRoT planets using uniform detection and evaluation
criteria. Our analysis is based on a Bayesian statistics: the eclipse
search is carried out using Bayesian model selection, and the
characterization of the plausible eclipse candidates using Bayesian
parameter estimation. We discover statistically significant eclipse
events for two planets, CoRoT-6b and CoRoT-11b, and for one brown dwarf,
CoRoT-15b. We also find marginally significant eclipse events passing
our plausibility criteria for CoRoT-3b, 13b, 18b, and 21b, and confirm
the previously published CoRoT-1b and CoRoT-2b eclipses.
