Tidal Dissipation in Evolved Low and Intermediate Mass Stars

Abstract

As the observed occurrence for planets or stellar companions orbiting low and intermediate-mass evolved stars is increasing, so does the importance of understanding and evaluating the strength of their interactions. One of the fundamental mechanisms to understand this interaction is the tidal dissipation in these stars, as it is one of the engines of orbital/rotational evolution of star-planet/star-star systems. This article builds on previous works studying the evolution of the tidal dissipation along the pre-MS and the MS, which have shown the strong link between the structural and rotational evolution of stars and tidal dissipation. This article provides for the first time a complete picture of tidal dissipation along the entire evolution of low and intermediate-mass stars, including the advanced phases of evolution. Using stellar evolutionary models, the internal structure of the star is computed from the pre-MS all the way up to the white dwarf phase, for stars with initial mass between 1 and 4 Msun. Tidal dissipation is separated into two components: the dissipation of the equilibrium (non-wavelike) tide and the dissipation of the dynamical (wavelike) tide. For evolved stars the dynamical tide is constituted by progressive internal gravity waves. The significance of both the equilibrium and dynamical tide dissipation becomes apparent within distinct domains of the parameter space. The dissipation of the equilibrium tide is dominant when the star is large in size or the companion is far away from the star. Conversely the dissipation of the dynamical tide is important when the star is small in size or the companion is close to the star. Both the equilibrium and the dynamical tides are important in evolved stars, and therefore both need to be taken into account when studying the tidal dissipation in evolved stars and the evolution of planetary or/and stellar companions orbiting them.
