Posterior distribution for estimated iron mass fractions (IMF) as inferred from stellar refractory abundances (red) and the planet mass and radii (gray). All IMF calculations assume that the cores are pure iron and silicate mantles are iron-free. The 2σ regions of both posterior distributions do not overlap, solidifying arguments in favor of a likely super-Mercury interior of HD 137496 b with high IMF.
