Question: what planets do you try the conditions of

I’m interested in both Earth-like planets, so having cores made of hot nickel and iron, as well as the much large gas giants (like Jupiter and Saturn), the details on the interiors of which are much less well known.
Probably all of the planets we are finding outside our solar system (so-called exoplanets) fall in these two categories, so they are the obvious ones to look at.
