The nominal ranges of rocky planet masses, radii, surface gravities, and bulk densities
CT Unterborn, SJ Desch, J Haldemann… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
The two primary observable quantities of an exoplanet—its mass and radius—alone are not
sufficient to probe a rocky exoplanet's interior composition and mineralogy. To overcome …
