Abstract
Abstract We compiled data for 127 hosts (plus six candidates) and used them as constraints to construct interior models of the hosts using the MESA code. Two significant conclusions emerge from these models. First, except for a few stars, the hosts’ metallicity (Z0) is greater than 0.007. This suggests a possible suppression of the occurrence of planets below Z0 ≈ 0.007. Second, it concerns how chemical evolution unfolds in the galactic disk. For a given Z0 value, considering the oldest stars, there is a linear relationship between Z0 and age (t9). This line is around t9=13.4 Gyr at Z0=0, a value consistent with the age of the Galaxy. The linear relationship continues until around t9=6 Gyr, and the maximum value of Z0 remains constant between t9=2-6 Gyr. We further modeled 12 hosts classified as red clump (RC) stars in the literature, explicitly accounting for mass loss along the red giant branch. These models highlight the critical role of mass-loss assumptions in determining the initial masses and ages of RC hosts, and their implications for the survival and evolution of close-in planets. Another key outcome of this study is the discovery of the relationship between Z0 and the observed metallicity (Zs) for the hosts. We obtain a useful expression for Z0, the input parameter for the models, as a function of stellar mass, radius, and Zs. This expression can be used to estimate Z0 based on the reduced surface metallicity due to microscopic diffusion. We also derive an expression for planetary mass relative to the orbital semi-major axis and host mass. This expression may indicate a mass distribution near the inner disk where these planets formed, except for hot-Jupiters. Planet radii appear to depend on the planet’s mass and irradiation energy, as well as the orbital period.
