Tidal Dissipation from Circularization in Kepler Binaries
Joshua Schussler, Torsha Majumder, Kaloyan Penev
Understanding tidal dissipation is a requisite step for explaining the evolution of systems such as short-period binaries. This understanding has not yet been achieved, and in fact…
Measuring Tidal Dissipation in Giant Planets from Tidal Circularization
Mohammad M. Mahmud, Kaloyan M. Penev, Joshua A. Schussler
In this project, we determined the constraints on the modified tidal quality factor, , of gas-giant planets orbiting close to their host stars. We allowed to dep…
Constraints on Tidal Quality Factor in Kepler Eclipsing Binaries using Tidal Synchronization: A Frequency-Dependent Approach
Ruskin Patel, Kaloyan Penev, Joshua Schussler
Tidal dissipation in binary systems is the primary source for synchronization and circularization of the objects in the system. The efficiency of the dissipation of tidal energy in…
Comprehensive Bayesian Modeling of Tidal Circularization in Open Cluster Binaries part I: M 35, NGC 6819, NGC 188
Kaloyan M. Penev, Joshua A. Schussler
Tidal friction has long been recognized to circularize the orbits of binary stars over time. In this study, we use the observed distribution of orbital eccentricities in population…
