Mass-radius diagram of all small exoplanets (Rp ≤ 2 R and Mp ≤ 30 M) with a measured mass and radius to a precision better than 20% as listed in the NASA Exoplanet Archive. The colours of the planets indicate the insolation in units of log 10 (F). Earth and Venus are plotted in red filled circles for comparison. The solid lines are theoretical mass-radius curves (Zeng et al. 2016); from top to bottom: 100% H2O (blue solid line), a mixture of 50% H2O and 50% MgSiO3 (cyan dashed line), 100% MgSiO3 (green solid line), a mixture of 75% MgSiO3 and 25% Fe (magenta dashed line), a mixture of 50% MgSiO3 and 50% Fe (brown solid line), a mixture of 25% MgSiO3 and 75% Fe(red dashed line), and 100% Fe (orange solid line).
