Mass as a function of orbital period of characterized transiting giant exoplanets as of August 2019 (see http://exoplanets.org/). The two planets presented in this paper are highlighted in red and labeled. The dashed line represent the orbital period at twice the value of the Roche limit (for a host with one solar mass). This would be the final orbital period of an initially eccentric distant planet as a result of the high-eccentricity migration mechanism.
