MASS-RADIUS PROPERTIES

These plots show planetary properties associated with mass and radius. They include density, escape velocity, gravity, potential energy, and surface pressure, all relative to Earth. Surface pressure corresponds to the same atmosphere/planet mass ratio as Earth. The planets are color-coded with the equilibrium temperature (assuming albedo = 0.3). The last two plots are color-coded by radius and mass.
