Mass-density distribution of well-characterised giant planets. Left: planet bulk density as a function of planet mass for lightly irradiated (F★ < 2 × 108 erg s−1 cm−2) giant planets (Mp > 0.1 MJ). Only well-characterised planets are shown, as in Fig. 18. The stellar metallicity is colour-coded, while the symbol size scales with insolation. The shaded green area corresponds to the mass-radius relation for giant planets in the absence of anomalous heating, i.e. assuming no inflation (from Thorngren 2024). Right: same plot, but for irradiated (F★ > 2 × 108 erg s−1 cm−2) giants.
