The pith
A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.
The reading
What carries the argument
The central machinery is the birth-radius inference of Minchev et al. (2018), which maps a star's [Fe/H] and age to a unique Galactic birth radius by inverting logarithmic functions for the time evolution of the ISM metallicity at the solar radius and of the radial metallicity gradient. Stellar ages come from PARAM isochrone fitting with PARSEC models, using effective temperature, [Fe/H], and bolometric luminosities from Gaia and 2MASS photometry. The relative frequency $F_p = \frac{\text{number of planetary systems}}{\text{total number of stars}}$ is then computed in bins of [Fe/H], age, and $r_{\mathrm{birth}}$ as a proxy for formation efficiency.
What would settle it
Compare the birth radii inferred from [Fe/H] and age with kinematic birth radii (guiding radii) from Gaia astrometry for the same stars; if the two do not agree, or if stars in open clusters with known distances do not lie on the assumed [Fe/H]–radius relation at their cluster age, the radial and temporal trends in formation efficiency would be artifacts of the chemical evolution model rather than real spatial patterns.
Extended reading notes
Core claim
The central claim is that the formation efficiency of planets, measured as the relative frequency of stars hosting a given planet type, declines with galactocentric distance and that this decline is more pronounced for high-mass planets (≥50 Earth masses) than for low-mass planets (≤30 Earth masses). High-mass planet formation efficiency also rises with time and spreads to larger galactocentric radii, while low-mass planet efficiency is nearly flat, with a mild increase between 4 and 8 Gyr. Stars without detected planets appear to form at progressively larger galactocentric distances with time. The authors attribute these trends to Galactic chemical evolution: the ISM's negative metallicity gradient makes the inner disk metal-rich and planet-friendly, and enrichment with time allows planet formation to reach larger radii.
Load-bearing premise
The entire birth-radius reconstruction rests on the adopted Minchev et al. (2018) relation between a star's [Fe/H] and age and its birth radius; if that chemical evolution calibration is wrong, every inferred $r_{\mathrm{birth}}$ value and every trend in formation efficiency shifts systematically.
Editorial extensions
If this is right
- Planet formation efficiency is highest in the inner Galactic disk and declines outward, implying that the Galaxy's planetary systems are centrally concentrated.
- High-mass planets form preferentially in metal-rich, inner regions and increasingly at later times, consistent with core accretion's metallicity dependence.
- Low-mass planets form more uniformly, with a slight peak at intermediate ages, suggesting their formation is less sensitive to metallicity.
- The time-spreading of formation efficiency to larger radii means younger planetary systems are found farther out, a signature that can be tested with large-area surveys.
- If the birth-radius mapping is correct, exoplanet occurrence rates should correlate with stellar birth radius, not just present-day Galactocentric distance.
Reading between the lines
- A direct testable extension is to compare the [Fe/H]-based birth radii with kinematic guiding radii from Gaia astrometry for the same stars; if they do not reproduce the same radial gradient, the reported $F_p$ trends would be artifacts of the chemical evolution model rather than real spatial variation.
- The paper's interpretation implies that the first generation of planets formed almost exclusively in the inner disk; bulge or thick-disk planetary systems may represent an older, metal-poor population with distinct mass demographics.
- The reported increase of $F_p$ with time for high-mass planets could be sharpened into a quantitative prediction for the PLATO mission: the fraction of stars hosting giant planets among young (<4 Gyr) inner-disk stars should exceed that of older populations by a measurable factor.
- Because the HARPS-GTO comparison sample is small and volume-limited, a larger homogeneous survey could test whether the host-star versus single-star differences persist after accounting for detection biases.

Referee Report
Summary. The paper infers the Galactic birth radii of exoplanet host stars by combining stellar ages from PARAM/PARSEC isochrones with the Minchev et al. (2018) method, which maps a star's [Fe/H] and age onto the radius where the ISM had the same [Fe/H] at the star's birth. Using SWEET-Cat planet hosts (548 stars) and HARPS-GTO stars with (83) and without (491) planets, the authors find that hosts are more metal-rich, younger, and have smaller inferred r_birth than non-hosts, with high-mass planet hosts showing the strongest offsets. Defining F_p as the relative frequency of planetary systems, they report that F_p increases with [Fe/H], decreases with age, and decreases with r_birth, more steeply for high-mass than for low-mass planets; splitting by age, they report that high-mass planet formation efficiency increases with time and extends to larger galactocentric radii, in agreement with the assumed ISM enrichment and gradient flattening. They conclude that exoplanet formation follows Galactic chemical evolution.
Significance. If the central result were an independent measurement, the paper would establish an empirical radial and temporal map of exoplanet formation efficiency across the Galactic disk, a valuable benchmark for chemical evolution and planet formation models (Baba et al. 2023; Boettner et al. 2024). The paper has real strengths: homogeneous host and comparison samples from SWEET-Cat and HARPS-GTO, a transparent age-inference pipeline (PARAM with PARSEC isochrones), bootstrap-based uncertainties on ages and r_birth, binomial confidence intervals on F_p, KS significance tests, an explicit statement of the incompleteness caveat (Sect. 4.4), and predictions that future surveys such as PLATO can falsify. The confirmation of the planet-metallicity and planet-mass-metallicity trends is solid and useful. However, the central spatial claim is not an independent measurement: it is the well-established planet-metallicity correlation remapped through the assumed Minchev et al. (2018) ISM metallicity evolution, whose time-dependent gradient also prescribes the reported temporal expansion. Reframed as a model-conditional projection, the paper is a reasonable application with modest novelty.
major comments (3)
- [§3, §4.4, §4.5, Figs. 8-9] The central claim of the abstract—that planet formation efficiency decreases with galactocentric distance, and that high-mass planet formation 'increases with time and encompasses a larger galactocentric distance over time'—is largely prescribed by the construction rather than measured. In Section 3, r_birth is inferred by inverting the Minchev et al. (2018) relation between [Fe/H], age, and the ISM metallicity, in which the ISM [Fe/H] is a strictly monotonic decreasing function of radius at every age; any star with above-average [Fe/H] is therefore assigned a below-average r_birth by construction. Since Fig. 6 shows that F_p increases with [Fe/H] (an independent, well-established result), the decline of F_p with r_birth in Fig. 8 is, to first order, the same relation relabeled through the assumed chemical evolution model, and the KS tests on r_birth in Table 1 are tests on a deterministic transform of [Fe/H] and age rather than on independent spatial information. The time-evolution claims (Fig. 9, Sect. 4.5) inherit the same structure: the adopted gradient flattens with time (from about -0.15 to -0.07 dex kpc^-1), so younger stars are assigned larger r_birth automatically, making the 'encompasses a larger galactocentric distance over time' conclusion a consequence of the assumed gradient flattening. Accordingly, the characterization of the method as 'semi-empirical and model-independent' (Section 3) is not supportable, and the closing statement of Section 5 that the results 'are in agreement with the observed negative ISM metallicity gradient and its enrichment and flattening with time' is circular, since that gradient is an input to the analysis. To make the central claim supportable, the authors should (i) validate the inferred r_birth against an independent estimate such as kinematic guiding radii from Gaia astrometry for the HARPS-GTO sample; (ii) test the sensitivity of Figs. 8-9 to the assumed gradient and its time evolution, e.g., by freezing the present-day gradient or by perturbing the Minchev et al. (2018) fits within their uncertainties; and (iii) examine F_p versus r_birth within fixed [Fe/H] bins, which would isolate the age-dependent part of the projection. Without such tests, the abstract's 'we show' should be revised to a model-conditional statement.
- [§4.4, Eq. (2), Figs. 6-8] The construction of F_p in Eq. (2) is ambiguous for the SWEET-Cat panels. SWEET-Cat contains 548 host stars and no stars without detected planets, so the denominator 'total number of stars' must draw on the HARPS-GTO single-star sample; the figures (Figs. 6-8) indeed show single-star counts in the SWEET-Cat panels, but the text never states that HARPS-GTO stars are used as the denominator there. This matters because the two catalogues have different selection functions: HARPS-GTO is a volume-limited radial-velocity survey within 500 pc, whereas SWEET-Cat is a compiled catalogue of planet hosts within 2 kpc assembled from heterogeneous surveys. The paper acknowledges that 'this is not the mathematically correct way to compute the frequency of planetary systems' but then asserts that 'the observed trends should reflect the true dependencies' without demonstrating that the trends survive the incompleteness; mixing a local single-star denominator with a more distant host numerator can imprint spurious trends in age and metallicity through distance-dependent detectability. Please specify exactly how N_total is computed for each panel of Figs. 6-8, and show whether the reported trends persist when the analysis is restricted to the volume-limited HARPS-GTO sample alone or when basic completeness corrections are applied.
- [§4.3] There is a direct internal contradiction in Section 4.3. The text states that 'HMPHs have, on average, smaller r_birth than LMPHs and ELMPHs, the latter having the smallest r_birth among the three groups,' but the quoted mean values are 5.7 ± 0.1, 5.9 ± 0.2, and 6.1 ± 0.2 kpc for SWEET-Cat HMPHs, LMPHs, and ELMPHs, respectively, and 5.6 ± 0.2, 5.6 ± 0.3, and 6.0 ± 0.4 kpc for the HARPS-GTO sample. In both samples the ELMPHs have the largest mean r_birth, not the smallest; the sentence should read 'the latter having the largest r_birth.' More importantly, because Table 1 shows no statistically significant differences in r_birth among the three planet-host groups in either sample, the discussion in Section 5 should not present differences in mean r_birth between the planetary groups as a measured result.
minor comments (6)
- [§4, Table 1] Because systems containing both a high- and a low-mass planet are counted in both the HMPH and LMPH groups (as noted in Section 4), the KS tests comparing HMPHs with LMPHs are not comparisons of independent samples, and the two F_p curves in Figs. 6-9 are not mutually exclusive; this should be acknowledged where the tests are interpreted.
- [Abstract; §4.4-4.5] F_p is repeatedly called the 'formation efficiency of planets,' but Eq. (2) defines it as the ratio of detected planetary systems to sample stars with no completeness correction; a more neutral term such as 'detected planet-host fraction' would better match the quantity actually measured.
- [§3] The rule that a star is retained when only one of its two age estimates (tau_G or tau_KS) falls below the 13.3 Gyr limit, with the below-limit estimate used in isolation, is asymmetric and could bias the inferred ages of the oldest stars; the authors should either justify the rule or demonstrate that it does not affect the age and r_birth distributions.
- [§3, §4.2] The paper quotes mean ages and standard errors but never the typical 68% uncertainty on individual PARAM ages; because r_birth depends on age through the time-evolving metallicity gradient, the median individual age uncertainty should be reported (the acknowledgement in the discussion that ages are a key limiting factor is welcome but does not replace this information).
- [§4.5, Fig. 9] The low-mass-planet time-evolution claims rest on 23, 40, and 17 SWEET-Cat LMPHs in the three age bins (and only 19 HARPS-GTO LMPHs in total); the text should quote these counts next to the claims in abstract items (ii) and (iii) and should hedge wherever the binomial uncertainties are comparable to the reported trends.
- [§5 (Data availability)] The manuscript does not provide a machine-readable table of the derived ages and birth radii or a data/code availability statement; providing these would materially help reproducibility.
Circularity Check
The central radial and temporal F_p trends are remappings of the adopted [Fe/H]-age-to-r_birth calibration, not independent spatial measurements.
-
self definitional
[Section 3 (Stellar ages and Galactic birth radii)]
"To infer the r_birth of stars, we adopted the same method as Minchev et al. (2018), using [Fe/H] and age estimations. We choose this method because it consists of projecting stars back to their birth position according to only their [Fe/H] and age measurements... In practice, the r_birth was inferred from the [Fe/H]–r relation for a given age."
r_birth is computed by inverting an assumed monotonically decreasing [Fe/H]–radius relation at each age, so higher-[Fe/H] stars are assigned smaller r_birth by construction. Because the paper independently shows that planet hosts are metal-richer (Sect. 4.1) and that F_p rises with [Fe/H] (Fig. 6), the claimed decline of F_p with galactocentric distance (Fig. 8) is a remapping of the F_p–[Fe/H] relation through the adopted chemical-evolution model. No new spatial information is added by the projection; the radial gradient is an input, not an output.
-
fitted input called prediction
[Section 5 (Discussion and Conclusion), time-evolution claim]
"Our results suggest that the formation efficiency of high-mass planets increases with time and encompasses a larger galactocentric distance over time. These results are in agreement with ... the ISM enrichment and flattening with time at any radius, which favours the formation of these planets around younger and metal-richer stars, encompassing larger galactocentric radii."
The age-dependent radial mapping already assumes the ISM metallicity gradient flattens with time (Minchev et al. 2018 logarithmic fits), so younger stars at a given [Fe/H] are assigned larger r_birth. The conclusion that high-mass planet formation 'encompasses a larger galactocentric distance over time' is therefore encoded in the calibration before any data are examined; the stated 'agreement' with the assumed flattening is tautological rather than an independent empirical finding.
full rationale
The paper's genuinely independent measurements are the [Fe/H], age, and planet-mass distributions and the F_p([Fe/H]) and F_p(age) trends. Those results stand on their own. The circularity enters when the same data are projected onto a Galactic radius axis: r_birth is not measured but is defined as the radius at which the adopted ISM metallicity equals the star's observed [Fe/H] at the star's age. Since the adopted Minchev et al. (2018) relation is monotonic and since planet hosts are systematically metal-richer, the abstract's central claim that planet formation efficiency decreases with galactocentric distance follows by construction from the well-known F_p–[Fe/H] correlation. The same holds for the time evolution claim, which inherits the assumed flattening of the gradient. The paper does not validate the adopted calibration on its own stars or test an alternative radial mapping, and Section 4.3 even contains an internal inconsistency: the text states ELMPHs have the smallest r_birth while the quoted means show they have the largest (6.1 +/- 0.2 kpc vs. 5.7 +/- 0.1 kpc for HMPHs). These issues do not invalidate the [Fe/H]-based results, but they mean the specifically spatial conclusions are partially circular and need external validation against samples with kinematic or asteroseismic birth-radius estimates.

abstract
Exoplanets are detected around stars of different ages and birthplaces within the Galaxy. The aim of this work is to infer the Galactic birth radii ($r_\text{birth}$) of stars and, consequently, their planets, with the ultimate goal of studying the Galactic aspects of exoplanet formation. We used photometric, spectroscopic, and astrometric data to estimate the stellar ages of two samples of stars hosting planets and, for comparison, a sample of stars without detected planets. The $r_\text{birth}$ of exoplanets were inferred by projecting stars back to their birth positions based on their estimated age and metallicity [Fe/H]. We find that stars hosting planets have higher [Fe/H], are younger, and have smaller $r_\text{birth}$ compared to stars without detected planets. In particular, stars hosting high-mass planets show higher [Fe/H], are younger, and have smaller $r_\text{birth}$ than stars hosting low-mass planets. We show that the formation efficiency of planets, calculated as the relative frequency of planetary systems, decreases with the galactocentric distance, which relationship is stronger for high-mass planets than for low-mass planets. Additionally, we find that (i) the formation efficiency of high-mass planets increases with time and encompasses a larger galactocentric distance over time; (ii) the formation efficiency of low-mass planets shows a slight increase between the ages of 4 and 8 Gyr and also encompasses a larger galactocentric distance over time; and (iii) stars without detected planets appear to form at larger galactocentric distances over time. We conclude that the formation of exoplanets throughout the Galaxy follows the Galactic chemical evolution, for which our results are in agreement with the observed negative interstellar medium (ISM) metallicity gradient and its enrichment and flattening with time at any radius.
