Repercussions of thermal atmospheric tides on the rotation of terrestrial planets in the habitable zone
Pierre Auclair-Desrotour, Stéphane Mathis, Jacques Laskar
Semidiurnal atmospheric thermal tides are important for terrestrial exoplanets in the habitable zone of their host stars. With solid tides, they torque these planets, thus contribu…
Atmospheric thermal tides and planetary spin I. The complex interplay between stratification and rotation
Pierre Auclair-Desrotour, Stéphane Mathis, Jacques Laskar
Thermal atmospheric tides can torque telluric planets away from spin-orbit synchronous rotation, as observed in the case of Venus. They thus participate to determine the possible c…
Atmospheric tides and their consequences on the rotational dynamics of terrestrial planets
Pierre Auclair-Desrotour, Jacques Laskar, Stéphane Mathis
Atmospheric tides can have a strong impact on the rotational dynamics of planets. They are of most importance for terrestrial planets located in the habitable zone of their host st…
