Weighing the mass of LHS 3844 b
Alejandro Hacker, Nicola Astudillo-Defru, Rodrigo F. DÃaz +10
Context: LHS 3844 b (TOI-136 b) is a ultra short-period, Earth-size exoplanet detected by TESS. It is one of the most favourable object for atmospheric characterisation and the stu…
Limits on forming coreless terrestrial worlds in the TRAPPIST-1 system
Dongyang Huang, Caroline Dorn
With seven temperate Earth-sized planets revolving around an ultracool red dwarf, the nearby TRAPPIST-1 system offers a unique opportunity to verify models of exoplanet composition…
Fundamentals of interior modelling and challenges in the interpretation of observed rocky exoplanets
Philipp Baumeister, Francesca Miozzi, Claire Marie Guimond +7
Most our knowledge about rocky exoplanets is based on their measure of mass and radius. These two parameters are routinely measured and are used to categorise different populations…
The cosmochemistry of planetary systems
Martin Bizzarro, Anders Johansen, Caroline Dorn
Planets form and obtain their compositions from the leftover material present in protoplanetary disks of dust and gas surrounding young stars. The chemical make-up of a disk influe…
A primordial radius valley as a consequence of planet formation
Jesper Nielsen, Anders Johansen, Komal Bali +1
The radius distribution of close-in planets has been observed to have a bimodal distribution with a dearth of planets around ~1.5-2.0 commonly referred to as the ''radiu…
