Role of Magma Oceans in Controlling Carbon and Oxygen of Sub-Neptune Atmospheres

Most exoplanets with a few Earth radii are more inflated than bare-rock planets with the same mass, indicating a substantial volatile amount. Neither the origin of the volatiles nor the planet’s bulk composition can be constrained from the mass–radius relation alone, and the spectral characterizatio...
