Abstract
⺠We model the thermal mass loss of CoRoT-7b and Kepler-10b over their lifetimes. ⺠Planetary density and orbital distance are key parameters for thermal mass loss. ⺠CoRoT-7b and Kepler-10b cannot be thermally evaporated remnants of hot gas giants. ⺠A hot Uranus-type planet as origin of CoRoT-7b and Kepler-10b is very unlikely.
