Tidally induced non-adiabatic stellar oscillations: how planets make stars wobble
- Abstract:
-
We calculate the dynamical tides raised by a close planetary companion on non-rotating stars of 1 M⊙ and 1:4 M⊙. Using the Henyey method, we solve the fully non-adiabatic equations throughout the star, both for the case of frozen convection and for the case where an approximation for the perturbation to the convective flux is used. The horizontal Lagrangian displacement is found to be 10 to 100 times larger than the equilibrium tide value in a thin region near the sur...
