On the tidal evolution of Hot Jupiters on inclined orbits

Tidal friction is thought to be important in determining the long–term spin–orbit evolution of short–period extrasolar planetary systems. Using a simple model of the orbit–averaged effects of tidal friction (Eggleton et al. 1998), we study the evolution of close–in planets on inclined orbits, due to tides. We analyse the effects of the inclusion of stellar magnetic braking by performing a phase...

Effects of Magnetic Braking and Tidal Friction on Hot Jupiters

Tidal friction is thought to be important in determining the long-term spin-orbit evolution of short-period extrasolar planetary systems. Using a simple model of the orbit-averaged effects of tidal friction (Eggleton et al. 1998), we analyse the effects of the inclusion of stellar magnetic braking on the evolution of such systems. A phase-plane analysis of a simplified system of equations, incl...

1 Adam Jermyn - Tidal Heating of Hot Jupiters

1 Adam Jermyn Tidal Heating of Hot Jupiters Thousands of exoplanets have been discovered in recent years, and many of them bear little resemblance to planets in our own system. Probably the most strikingly different are socalled hot Jupiters, which are Jupiter-mass planets orbiting very close to the host star, such that radiation from the star heats the tops of their atmospheres. Some of the ho...
