Nonlinear tides in giant planets Adrian Barker DAMTP, University of Cambridge (formerly at CIERA, Northwestern) With: C. Baruteau, B Favier, P Fischer, Y Lithwick, G Ogilvie Introduction Motivation · Shortest period hot Jupiters (M ~ MJup, P < 10 d) have preferentially circular orbits => thought to be explained by tidal dissipation inside the planet (e.g. Rasio et al,1996) If so, what mechanisms are responsible? ... Linear theory contains uncertainties (e.g. Zahn, Ogilvie, Papaloizou, Ivanov, Wu). ...
