Hot super-Earths stripped by their host stars

M. S. Lundkvist, H. Kjeldsen, S. Albrecht +26

Simulations predict that hot super-Earth sized exoplanets can have their envelopes stripped by photo-evaporation, which would present itself as a lack of these exoplanets. However,…

An ancient extrasolar system with five sub-Earth-size planets

T. L. Campante, T. Barclay, J. J. Swift +38

The chemical composition of stars hosting small exoplanets (with radii less than four Earth radii) appears to be more diverse than that of gas-giant hosts, which tend to be metal-r…
