Zsom et al. (17) studied the inner edge of the habitable zone. Here we adopt an outer edge of 2 AU from the Simple model.
Pierrehumbert and Gaidos (18) studied the outer edge of the habitable zone. Here we adopt an inner edge of 0.5 AU from the Simple model. Extrapolation out to 10 AU is severely underconstrained. This estimate is highly uncertain and is included for completeness.
