Planetary Habitability Informed by Planet Formation and Exoplanet Demographics
·
Abstract
Many parameters that influence the habitability of a given exoplanet can not be measured. We discuss how can contextual knowledge on exoplanet population and planet formation be combined with uncertain information on individual planets. We review key questions that must be addressed to improve the predictive power of planet formation models.
