Tidal dissipation in magnetised, rotating stars and planets: linear calculations exploring various magnetic field configurations
Shijun Chu, Zhao Guo, Aurélie Astoul +2
We study tidal flows in the convective envelopes of rotating, magnetised fluid bodies, such as low-mass stars and giant planets. In well-mixed convective regions, (magneto-)inertia…
The stability of propagating plane inertial waves in rotating fluids
Valentin Skoutnev, Aurélie Astoul, Adrian J. Barker
Inertial waves transport energy and momentum in rotating fluids and are a major contributor to mixing and tidal dissipation in Earth's oceans, gaseous planets, and stellar interior…
Interplay between tidal flows and magnetic fields in nonlinear simulations of stellar and planetary convective envelopes
Aurélie Astoul, Adrian J. Barker
Stars and planets in close systems are magnetised but the influence of magnetic fields on their tidal responses (and vice versa) and dissipation rates has not been well explored. W…
Non-linear saturation of gravito-inertial modes excited by tidal resonances in binary neutron stars
Alexis Reboul-Salze, Aurélie Astoul, Hao-Jui Kuan +1
During the last seconds of a binary neutron-star merger, the tidal force can excite stellar oscillation modes to large amplitudes. From the perspective of premerger electromagnetic…
Interactions between tidal flows and magnetic fields in stellar/planetary convective envelopes
Aurélie Astoul, Adrian J. Barker
Stars and gaseous planets are magnetised objects but the influence of magnetic fields on their tidal responses and dissipation rates has not been well explored. We present the firs…
