Constraining the reflective properties of using CHEOPS photometry

Multiwavelength photometry of the secondary eclipses of extrasolar planets is able to disentangle the reflected and thermally emitted light radiated from the planetary dayside. Based on this, we can measure the planetary geometric albedo $A_g$ , which is an indicator of the presence of clouds in the atmosphere, and the recirculation efficiency epsilon , which quantifies the energy transport within the atmosphere. We measure $A_g$ and epsilon for the planet a highly irradiated giant planet with an estimated equilibrium temperature of 2450 K. We analyzed archival spectra and the light curves collected by CHEOPS and TESS to characterize the host refine the ephemeris of the system, and measure the eclipse depth in the passbands of the two telescopes. We measured a marginally significant eclipse depth of 70pm 40 ppm in the TESS passband, and a statistically significant depth of 70pm 20 ppm in the CHEOPS passband. Combining the eclipse-depth measurement in the CHEOPS eff AA$) and TESS eff AA$) passbands, we constrained the dayside brightness temperature of in the 2250-2800 K interval. The geometric albedo 0.1
