Abstract

In the original published version of this manuscript (Wong et al. 2020), Table 6 contained updated orbital ephemerides for transiting systems analyzed in our phase-curve study. In that table, we reported erroneous orbital periods for WASP-142b and WASP-173Ab. For both of these systems, only two transit timings are available in the literature—the discovery paper ephemerides (from Hellier et al. 2017 and Hellier et al. 2019, respectively) and the mid-transit time from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) phase-curve fits. The errors arose from applying incorrect initial guesses for the orbital period in our automated ephemerides calculator. We have fixed the errors and include the corrected zeroth epoch mid-transit time t0 and orbital period P for WASP-142b and WASP-173Ab in the updated ephemerides table (Table 6). Both of the new ephemerides are consistent with the published values in the corresponding discovery papers to within 1s. (Table Presented).
