Thermal structure of circumbinary discs: circumbinary planets should be icy, not rocky

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The authors investigate the dependence of the results on the parameters of the central binary, and apply the results to the putative circumbinary discs of several systems known to host CBPs. This is illustrated in Fig 2, where the authors show evolutionary tracks on a HR diagram for the circumbinary systems that the authors will focus on in this paper. The authors focus on these six particular systems in the rest of this paper. In Fig 4, the authors show the azimuthally averaged temperature distributions in the (R-Z) plane for each system considered.
