Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission XXVIII. CoRoT-33b, an object in the brown dwarf desert with 2:3 commensurability with its host star
Sz. Csizmadia, A. Hatzes, D. Gandolfi +32
We report the detection of a rare transiting brown dwarf with a mass of 59 M_Jup and radius of 1.1 R_Jup around the metal-rich, [Fe/H] = +0.44, G9V star CoRoT-33. The orbit is ecce…
Tidal synchronization of close-in satellites and exoplanets. II. Spin dynamics and extension to Mercury and exoplanets host stars
Sylvio Ferraz-Mello
This paper deals with the application of the creep tide theory (Ferraz-Mello, CeMDA 116, 109, 2013) to the rotation of close-in satellites, Mercury, close-in exoplanets and their h…
The small and large lags of the elastic and anelastic tides. The virtual identity of two rheophysical theories
Sylvio Ferraz-Mello
The aim of this letter is to discuss the virtual identity of two recent tidal theories: the creep tide theory of Ferraz-Mello (Cel. Mech. Dyn. Astron. 116, 109, 2013) and the Maxwe…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission XXVII. CoRoT-28b, a planet orbiting an evolved star, and CoRoT-29b, a planet showing an asymmetric transit
J. Cabrera, Sz. Csizmadia, G. Montagnier +50
Context. We present the discovery of two transiting extrasolar planets by the satellite CoRoT. Aims. We aim at a characterization of the planetary bulk parameters, which allow us t…
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…
