Exoplanets synchronization in the habitable zone: Learning from Venus' retrograde rotation
Sylvio Ferraz-Mello
The rotation of a planet located in the habitable zone of a solar-type star can be reversed by a smooth process associated with the formation of its atmosphere and the increase of…
Tidal dissipation and synchronization of the temperate exo-Earth LP 791-18d
Sylvio Ferraz-Mello, Thayná Menezes Bechara, Raphael Alves-Silva
The creep tide theory is used to explore several aspects of the tidal evolution of the planetary system of the M-star LP 791-18 . We discuss the early synchronization of the exo-Ea…
The tidal heating of the exoplanet 55 Cnc e. The role of the orbital eccentricity
Sylvio Ferraz-Mello, Cristian Beaugé
Context. Observations with warm Spitzer and JWST revealed high and variable brightness in the planet 55 Cnc e. Aims. Inventory of the tidal effects on the rotational and orbital ev…
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…
The PLATO Mission
Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842
PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…
Tidal Evolution of Close-in Exoplanets and Host Stars
S. Ferraz-Mello, C. Beaugé
The evolution of exoplanetary systems with a close-in planet is ruled by the tides mutually raised on the two bodies and by the magnetic braking of the host star. This paper deals…
