Distribution of Planet Radii For Orbital Periods < 50 Days Howard, Marcy, Kepler Team, as of Sept % of G stars have a planet of R Earth 10% of stars have Planets R Earth. 1% of stars have Planets 8-11 R Earth.

Distribution of Planet Sizes Petigura, Howard, Marcy, Kepler Team - Nov 2012 Is Decline to 1 R Earth Real ?

Distribution of Planet Sizes Petigura, Howard, Marcy, Kepler Team - Nov 2012 Is Decline to 1 R Earth Real ? Or is it due to Incompleteness in The Kepler pipeline? SNR (SES) ~ 1 for R=1 R Earth
New Kepler Pipeline by Erik Petigura New CBVs New Search Algorithm
Petigura’s Kepler Pipline Adopted CDPP Threshold: “Best 12,000 Kepler Stars” Best 12000
Planets Detected in “Best 12000” Kepler Stars Petigura et al Now: - Assess completeness - Compute occurrence ala Howard et al.
Completeness Measurement Petigura et al Detection Completeness: > 80% - Radius = 1.2 – 4 R Earth - Period > 50 d Inject Mock Transits into Actual Kepler Raw photometery
Planets Detected in “Best 12000” Kepler Stars Petigura et al Now make Same corrections As in Howard et al.
Fressin et al. Occurrence Occurrence is Flat Shortward of 2 R Earth Agreement with Petigura & Howard

Planet Radius vs Mass Weiss, Marcy, et al Planet Radius vs Mass
Constant Density: R ~ M 1/3 Radius rises faster than solid interior! Implication: Admixture of more volatiles with Increasing mass. i.e. Water or H + He. Planet Radius vs Mass
Electron Degeneracy: R ~ M -1/3 Radii rises faster Than e- degeneracy. Implication: Admixture of more volatiles with Increasing mass. i.e. Water or H + He.
