Could CoRoT-7b and Kepler-10b be remnants of evaporated gas or ice giants?

We present thermal mass loss calculations over evolutionary time scales for the investigation if the smallest transiting rocky exoplanets CoRoT-7b ([Formula: see text]) and Kepler-10b ([Formula: see text]) could be remnants of an initially more massive hydrogen-rich gas giant or a hot Neptune-class...
