CoRoT-2b: a Tidally Inflated, Young Exoplanet?

open access: yes, 2009
CoRoT-2b is among the most anomalously large transiting exoplanet known. Due to its large mass (3.3 Mjup), its large radius (~1.5 Rjup) cannot be explained by standard evolution models.

Tides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This photo is an overhead shot of the waves breaking at Pine Point beach. This represents so much for me. In these times of uncertainty it gives me hope that the tides will eventually turn.

Planet–Planet Scattering and Von Zeipel–Lidov–Kozai Migration—The Dynamical History of HAT-P-11

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The two planets of the HAT-P-11 system represent fascinating dynamical puzzles due to their significant eccentricities and orbital misalignments. In particular, HAT-P-11 b is in a close-in orbit in which tides should have circularized well within the age

An inquiry into Tides [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Classic earth science textbooks present a rather generalized treatment of the topic of tides, but to the majority of mid-westerners the descriptions are largely without intrinsic meaning because of the lack of firsthand experience with marine tides.

Planetary Obliquity Excitation through Pre-main-sequence Stellar Evolution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A planet’s axial tilt (“obliquity”) substantially affects its atmosphere and habitability. It is thus essential to comprehend the various mechanisms that can excite planetary obliquities, particularly at the primordial stage.

Tides

open access: yes, 2019
Tides on planet Earth are generated by the gravitational attraction of the Moon and Sun. In the global ocean the observed tides are strongly controlled by the responses of the oceans basins to the direct tidal forcing. Analysis of tidal measurements, and

Spin Dynamics of Planets in Resonant Chains

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
About a dozen exoplanetary systems have been discovered with three or more planets participating in a sequence of mean-motion resonances. The unique and complex architectures of these so-called “resonant chains” motivate efforts to characterize their ...

Tidal Migration of Exoplanets around M Dwarfs: Frequency-dependent Tidal Dissipation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The orbital architectures of short-period exoplanet systems are shaped by tidal dissipation in their host stars. For low-mass M dwarfs whose dynamical tidal response comprises a dense spectrum of inertial modes at low frequencies, resolving the frequency
