Tidal Dissipation Impact on the Eccentric Onset of Common Envelope Phases in Massive Binary Star Systems
Michelle Vick, Morgan MacLeod, Dong Lai +1
Tidal dissipation due to turbulent viscosity in the convective regions of giant stars plays an important role in shaping the orbits of pre-common envelope systems. Such systems are…

Tidal Effects in Eccentric Coalescing Neutron Star Binaries
Michelle Vick, Dong Lai
Dynamically formed compact object binaries may still be eccentric while in the LIGO/Virgo band. For a neutron star (NS) in an eccentric binary, the fundamental modes (f-modes) are…
