The atmosphere of TOI-1130b shows high metallicity, low C/O, and elevated mean molecular weight consistent with ex-situ formation beyond the water ice line.
Numerical inversion of GJ 486b's escape history shows strong degeneracy between initial hydrogen atmosphere and water inventory, yielding a probabilistic stellar age of 2.90^{+2.47}_{-2.27} Gyr when using a planet-formation prior.
An upgraded planet population synthesis model incorporates post-disc dynamical evolution and atmospheric enrichment to generate synthetic exoplanet populations with improved fidelity to N-body results and observations.
