Astrophysics with the laser interferometer space antenna

P Amaro-Seoane, J Andrews, M Arca Sedda… - Living Reviews in …, 2023 - Springer
Abstract The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will be a transformative experiment
for gravitational wave astronomy, and, as such, it will offer unique opportunities to address …

Tidal dissipation in stars and giant planets

GI Ogilvie - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2014 - annualreviews.org
Astrophysical fluid bodies that orbit close to one another induce tidal distortions and flows
that are subject to dissipative processes. The spin and orbital motions undergo a coupled …

The PLATO 2.0 mission

H Rauer, C Catala, C Aerts, T Appourchaux… - Experimental …, 2014 - Springer
PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing
accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it …

Tidal dissipation in evolving low-mass and solar-type stars with predictions for planetary orbital decay

AJ Barker - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 - academic.oup.com
We study tidal dissipation in stars with masses in the range 0.1–1.6 M⊙ throughout their
evolution, including turbulent effective viscosity acting on equilibrium tides and inertial …

Resonance locking as the source of rapid tidal migration in the Jupiter and Saturn moon systems

J Fuller, J Luan, E Quataert - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2016 - academic.oup.com
The inner moons of Jupiter and Saturn migrate outwards due to tidal energy dissipation
within the planets, the details of which remain poorly understood. We demonstrate that …

Orbital decay of short-period exoplanets via tidal resonance locking

L Ma, J Fuller - The Astrophysical Journal, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
A large fraction of known exoplanets have short orbital periods where tidal excitation of
gravity waves within the host star causes the planets' orbits to decay. We study the effects of …

Dynamical tides in Jupiter and other rotationally flattened planets and stars with stable stratification

JW Dewberry - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We develop a numerical method for directly computing the dissipative dynamical tidal
response of rapidly rotating, oblate stars and gaseous planets with realistic internal …

Dynamical tides in Jupiter and the role of interior structure

Y Lin - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2023 - aanda.org
Context. The Juno spacecraft has obtained highly accurate tidal Love numbers, which
provide important constraints on the tidal response and interior structure of Jupiter. Aims. In …

Effect of the rotation and tidal dissipation history of stars on the evolution of close-in planets

E Bolmont, S Mathis - Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, 2016 - Springer
Since 20 years, a large population of close-in planets orbiting various classes of low-mass
stars (from M-type to A-type stars) has been discovered. In such systems, the dissipation of …

Tidal dissipation due to the elliptical instability and turbulent viscosity in convection zones in rotating giant planets and stars

NB de Vries, AJ Barker… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Tidal dissipation in star–planet systems can occur through various mechanisms, among
which is the elliptical instability. This acts on elliptically deformed equilibrium tidal flows in …
