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 …

Loss of a satellite could explain Saturn's obliquity and young rings
The origin of Saturn's~ 26.7° obliquity and~ 100-million-year-old rings is unknown. The
observed rapid outward migration of Saturn's largest satellite, Titan, could have raised …
