Extension of the creep tide theory to exoplanet systems with high stellar obliquity. The dynamic tide of CoRoT-3b

Hugo Folonier, Sylvio Ferraz-Mello, Raphael Alves-Silva

This paper extends the creep tide theory to exoplanetary systems with significant obliquities. The extended theory allows us to obtain the stellar and planetary hydrodynamic equili…

Creep tide theory. Equations for differentiated bodies with aligned layers

Sylvio Ferraz-Mello, Hugo A. Folonier, Gabriel O. Gomes

The creep tide theory is used to establish the basic equations of the tidal evolution of differentiated bodies formed by aligned homogeneous layers in co-rotation. The mass concent…

Ellipsoidal equilibrium figure and Cassini states of rotating planets and satellites deformed by a tidal potential in the spatial case

Hugo A. Folonier, Gwenaël Boué, Sylvio Ferraz-Mello

The equilibrium figure of an inviscid tidally deformed body is the starting point for the construction of many tidal theories such as Darwinian tidal theories or the hydrodynamical…

Creep Tide Model for the 3-Body Problem. The rotational evolution of a circumbinary planet

F. A. Zoppetti, H. Folonier, A. M. Leiva +1

We present a tidal model for treating the rotational evolution in the general three-body problem with arbitrary viscosities, in which all the masses are considered to be extended a…

Tidal friction in satellites and planets. The new version of the creep tide theory

Sylvio Ferraz-Mello, Cristian Beaugé, Hugo Alberto Folonier +1

Paper on the creep tide theory and its applications to satellites and planets with emphasis on a new set of differential equations allowing easier numerical studies. The creep tide…

Rotation and figure evolution in the creep tide theory. A new approach and application to Mercury

Gabriel O. Gomes, Hugo A. Folonier, Sylvio Ferraz-Mello

This paper deals with the rotation and figure evolution of a planet near the 3/2 spin-orbit resonance and the exploration of a new formulation of the creep tide theory (Folonier et…

A self-consistent weak friction model for the tidal evolution of circumbinary planets

F. A. Zoppetti, C. Beaugé, A. M. Leiva +1

We present a self-consistent model for the tidal evolution of circumbinary planets. Based on the weak-friction model, we derive expressions of the resulting forces and torques cons…

Tidal synchronization of close-in satellites and exoplanets. III. Tidal dissipation revisited and application to Enceladus

Hugo A. Folonier, Sylvio Ferraz-Mello, Eduardo Andrade-Ines

This paper deals with a new formulation of the creep tide theory (Ferraz-Mello, Cel. Mech. Dyn. Astron. {\bf 116}, 109, 2013 Paper I) and with the tidal dissipation predicted b…

Tidal synchronization of an anelastic multi-layered body: Titan's synchronous rotation

Hugo A. Folonier, Sylvio Ferraz-Mello

This paper presents one analytical tidal theory for a viscoelastic multi-layered body with an arbitrary number of homogeneous layers. Starting with the static equilibrium figure, m…

The flattenings of the layers of rotating planets and satellites deformed by a tidal potential

Hugo Folonier, Sylvio Ferraz-Mello, Konstantin V. Kholshevnikov

We consider the Clairaut theory of the equilibrium ellipsoidal figures for differentiated non-homogeneous bodies in non-synchronous rotation adding to it a tidal deformation due to…

Interplay of tidal evolution and stellar wind braking in the rotation of stars hosting massive close-in planets

S. Ferraz-Mello, M. Tadeu dos Santos, H. Folonier +3

This paper deals with the application of the creep tide theory (Ferraz-Mello, Cel. Mech. Dyn. Astron. vol. 116, 109, 2013) to the study of the rotation of stars hosting massive clo…

Capture Probability in the 3:1 Mean Motion Resonance with Jupiter

H. Folonier, F. Roig, C. Beaugé

We study the capture and crossing probabilities into the 3:1 mean motion resonance with Jupiter for a small asteroid that migrates from the inner to the middle Main Belt under the…
