Chthonian planet rocky planet and not the eroded core of a gas or ice giant, due to the young age of the star system. Kepler-70b and Kepler-70c are sub-Earth planets that are thought to have been giant planets that were engulfed by the extended envelope of their star in its red giant phase vaporizing their gaseous envelope. Chthonian planet Chthonian planets (, sometimes 'cthonian') are a hypothetical class of celestial objects resulting from the stripping away of a gas giant's hydrogen and helium atmosphere and outer layers, which is called hydrodynamic escape. Such atmospheric stripping is a likely result of proximity to
Hydrogen gas porosity of hydrogen is possible using an on-line quantitative measurement technology based on a closed-loop gas recirculation method though a porous ceramic probe. Since its introduction in 1989, this gas recirculation method has been increasingly used by major aluminum producers. The closed loop recirculation is a proven method of directly monitoring hydrogen in molten aluminium. A small volume of carrier gas, usually nitrogen, is brought in contact with the melt by means of an immersed probe, and is continuously recirculated in the closed loop until its hydrogen content reaches equilibrium with the vapor pressure of H in the melt. The H
