Understanding tidal dissipation in gaseous giant planets from their core to their surface
M. Guenel, S. Mathis, F. Remus
Tidal dissipation in planetary interiors is one of the key physical mechanisms that drive the evolution of star-planet and planet-moon systems. Tidal dissipation in planets is intr…
The surface signature of the tidal dissipation of the core in a two-layer planet
F. Remus, S. Mathis, J. -P. Zahn +1
Tidal dissipation, which is directly linked to internal structure, is one of the key physical mechanisms that drive systems evolution and govern their architecture. A robust evalua…
The equilibrium tide in stars and giant planets: I - the coplanar case
F. Remus, S. Mathis, J. -P. Zahn
Since 1995, more than 500 extrasolar planets have been discovered orbiting very close to their parent star, where they experience strong tidal interactions. Their orbital evolution…
Anelastic tidal dissipation in multi-layer planets
F. Remus, S. Mathis, J. -P. Zahn +1
Earth-like planets have viscoelastic mantles, whereas giant planets may have viscoelastic cores. The tidal dissipation of such solid regions, gravitationally perturbed by a compani…
Understanding tidal dissipation in gaseous giant planets : the respective contributions of their core and envelope
M. Guenel, S. Mathis, F. Remus
Tidal dissipation in planetary interiors is one of the key physical mechanisms that drive the evolution of star-planet and planet-moon systems. New constraints are now obtained bot…
Decaying shock studies of phase transitions in MgOSiO2 systems: implications for the Super-Earths interiors
R. M. Bolis, G. Morard, T. Vinci +15
We report an experimental study of the phase diagrams of periclase (MgO), enstatite (MgSiO3) and forsterite (Mg2SiO4) at high pressures. We investigated with laser driven decaying…
Strong tidal dissipation in Saturn and constraints on Enceladus' thermal state from astrometry
V. Lainey, Ã. Karatekin, J. Desmars +8
Tidal interactions between Saturn and its satellites play a crucial role in both the orbital migration of the satellites and the heating of their interiors. Therefore constraining…
The anelastic equilibrium tide in exoplanetary systems
F. Remus, S. Mathis, J. -P. Zahn +1
Earth-like planets have anelastic mantles, whereas giant planets may have anelastic cores. As for the fluid parts of a body, the tidal dissipation of such solid regions, gravitatio…
