(Top) Radius vs. mass and (bottom) ﹩\mathrm{log}{g}_{p}﹩ vs. mass for transiting planets in our study sample. Color represents the received insolation by the planet, in units of 108 erg s−1 cm−2, where warm colors represent insolation above the empirical threshold of ∼2 × 108 erg s−1 cm−2 for planet inflation (Demory & Seager 2011).
