exopie

Find exoplanet interior structure error (exopie), given mass and radius of the planet.

The methodology is described in Plotnykov & Valencia (2024) and is based on the SUPEREARTH interior structure model developed by Valencia et al. (2006) and updated in Plotnykov & Valencia (2020).

Features

• Find the core mass fraction (CMF) of a rocky planet.
• Find the water mass fraction (WMF) of a temperate water world (Teq=300K).
• Find the rocky interior of a planet with thin atmosphere (~50km).
• Find the atmospheric mass fraction (AMF) of a H_2 dominated sub-Neptune (comming).

Installation
