Transit asymmetry calculations from different cloud scenarios for PLATO. Top: differences between the individual evening and morning transit depths (transit asymmetries) for tidally locked planets with T_global = 800 K… 2600 K orbiting G main sequence stars (left: all latitudes are used, right: only equatorial information is used). Results for clear atmosphere calculations are indicated by circles. Cloudy scenarios with different cloud mass loads, ρ_g/ρ_d(z), in atmospheric layers where 〈a〉 < 0.1 μm are denoted by different markers (crosses: 10⁻³ρ_g/ρ_d(z), diamonds: 10⁻²ρ_g/ρ_d(z), squares: 0.1ρ_g/ρ_d(z)). Triangles denote Fe-free results with full ρ_g/ρ_d(z). Colors denote different PLATO observation modes (black: PLATO’s white band, golden: PLATO’s red filter, blue: PLATO’s blue filter). Bottom: evening-morning transit depth differences between PLATO fast cameras’ red and blue filter (red symbols/green symbols).
