Abstract:Context. Both rocky super-Earths and volatile-rich sub-Neptunes have been found simultaneously in multiplanetary systems, suggesting that these systems are appropriate to study different composition and formation pathways within the same environment. Aims. We perform a homogeneous interior structure analysis of five multiplanetary systems to explore the compositional trends and its relation with planet formation. For one of these systems, K2-138, we present revised masses and stellar host chemical abundances t… Show more
