Separating Super-puffs versus Hot Jupiters among Young Puffy Planets

Discoveries 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. Obtaining mass measurements for these planets is challenging due...
