Considering the fault-block model of seismic processes as a system in an unsteady state close to critical it is possible to assume the lunar-solar tides, as a "tectonic vibrator", play the role of trigger mechanism to the seismicity. Based on the complex

Tidally-triggered disk thickening. I. Observations [PDF]
As part of an investigation on what effect galaxy interactions have on the z -structure of the disks of involved galaxies, we present here new photometric data in the B , V , I passbands for a sample of 24 interacting systems and 7 non-interacting galaxies. Isophotes, total magnitudes and colours of all sample galaxies (67) are determined.

A Tidal Trigger of Starburst or Seyfert Activity [PDF]
Some of the classical seyferts are observed to be prototypical ovals, e.g. NGC 1068 and 4151 (e.g., Bosma 1981; Kormendy 1982; Scoville et al. 1988). Such a non-axisymmetric potential corresponding to an oval disk can produce inward flow of gas and induce mild activity.

Tidal stress triggering of earthquakes in Southern California [PDF]
We analyse the influence of the solid Earth tides and ocean loading on the occurrence time of Southern California earthquakes. For each earthquake, we calculate tidal Coulomb failure stress and stress rate on a fault plane that is assumed to be controlled by the orientation of the adjacent fault.

Disks of Stars in the Galactic Center Triggered by Tidal Disruption Events
Abstract In addition to a supermassive black hole (SMBH), the central parsec of the Milky Way hosts over 100 massive, high-velocity young stars whose existence, and organization of a subset of them in one, or possibly two, misaligned disks, is puzzling. Due to a combination of low medium density and strong tidal forces in the vicinity of

Weak faults at megathrust plate boundary respond to tidal stress
Lateral spatial variations of weak portions at the plate boundary in subduction zones have been estimated primarily by the distribution of slow earthquakes mainly occurring around seismogenic zones.

Tidal modulation of seismicity is globally reported in fluid-rich environments of hydrothermal systems, particularly in oceanic or coastal settings. Specifically, the short-period and high-amplitude stress variations caused by ocean tidal loading within ...

Different Fault Response to Stress during the Seismic Cycle
Seismic prediction was considered impossible, however, there are no reasons in theoretical physics that explicitly prevent this possibility. Therefore, it is quite likely that prediction is made stubbornly complicated by practical difficulties such as ...

Episodic Tremors and Slip (ETS) are highly susceptible and sensitive to external stress perturbations. The tidal and remote triggering phenomena of tremors are well-documented globally, however, the significance of the delayed triggering mechanism ...
