The Astrophysical JournalPlanet formation models suggest that the small exoplanets that migrate from beyond the snowline of the protoplanetary disk likely contain water-ice-rich cores (∼50% by mass), also known as water worlds.

The Impact-driven Atmospheric Loss of Super-Earths around Different Spectral Types of Host Stars
The Astrophysical JournalA planet’s mass loss is important for the its formation and evolution. The radius valley (RV) is believed to be triggered by evaporation-induced mass loss.

Hundreds of TESS Exoplanets Might Be Larger than We Thought
The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe radius of a planet is a fundamental parameter that probes its composition and habitability. Precise radius measurements are typically derived from the fraction of starlight blocked when a planet transits its host star.

Separating Super-puffs versus Hot Jupiters among Young Puffy Planets
The Astrophysical JournalDiscoveries of close-in young puffy ( R _p ≳ 6 R _⊕ ) planets raise the question of whether they are bona fide hot Jupiters or puffed-up Neptunes, potentially placing constraints on the formation location and timescale of hot Jupiters.

Formation of stars, substellar objects and exoplanets : Observations of multiplicity
, 2011 Many nearby stars are part of a binary or multiple system. Details about their history are preserved in their multiplicity characteristics, and observations of binary/multiple star systems provide a way to measure fundamental physical properties of the stars as well as clues to their formation and evolution.
