Formation and Structure of Low-Density Exo-Neptunes
Kepler has found hundreds of Neptune-size (2-6 R [subscript ⊕]) planet candidates within 0.5 AU of their stars. The nature of the vast majority of these planets is not known because their masses have not been measured. Using theoretical models of planet formation, evolution, and structure, we explor...
