Pre-Supernova Outbursts via Wave Heating in Massive Stars II: Hydrogen-poor Stars
Jim Fuller, Stephen Ro
Pre-supernova (SN) outbursts from massive stars may be driven by hydrodynamical wave energy emerging from the core of the progenitor star during late nuclear burning phases. Here,…
How Cassini Can Constrain Tidal Dissipation in Saturn
Jing Luan, Jim Fuller, Eliot Quataert
Tidal dissipation inside giant planets is important for the orbital evolution of their natural satellites. It is conventionally treated by parameterized equilibrium tidal theory, i…
The Pseudosynchronization of Binary Stars Undergoing Strong Tidal Interactions
Mara Zimmerman, Susan Thompson, Fergal Mullally +3
Eccentric binaries known as heartbeat stars experience strong dynamical tides as the stars pass through periastron, providing a laboratory to study tidal interactions. We measure t…
Heartbeat Stars, Tidally Excited Oscillations, and Resonance Locking
Jim Fuller
Heartbeat stars are eccentric binary stars in short period orbits whose light curves are shaped by tidal distortion, reflection, and Doppler beaming. Some heartbeat stars exhibit t…
Accelerated Tidal Circularization Via Resonance Locking in KIC 8164262
Jim Fuller, Kelly Hambleton, Avi Shporer +2
Tidal dissipation in binary star and planetary systems is poorly understood. Fortunately, eccentric binaries known as heartbeat stars often exhibit tidally excited oscillations, pr…
KIC 8164262: a Heartbeat Star Showing Tidally Induced Pulsations with Resonant Locking
K. Hambleton, J. Fuller, S. Thompson +8
We present the analysis of KIC 8164262, a heartbeat star with a high-amplitude (~1 mmag), tidally resonant pulsation (a mode in resonance with the orbit) at 229 times the orbital f…
Pre-Supernova Outbursts via Wave Heating in Massive Stars I: Red Supergiants
Jim Fuller
Early observations of supernovae (SNe) indicate that enhanced mass loss and pre-SN outbursts may occur in progenitors of many types of SNe. We investigate the role of energy transp…
The Most Massive Heartbeat: An In-depth Analysis of ι Orionis
Herbert Pablo, N. D. Richardson, J. Fuller +17
ι Ori is a well studied massive binary consisting of an O9 III + B1 III/IV star. Due to its high eccentricity (e = 0.764) and short orbital period (P orb = 29.13376 d), it has been…
Planet-Induced Stellar Pulsations in HAT-P-2's Eccentric System
J. de Wit, N. K. Lewis, H. A. Knutson +13
Extrasolar planets on eccentric short-period orbits provide a laboratory in which to study radiative and tidal interactions between a planet and its host star under extreme forcing…
