ORBITAL DECAY OF HOT JUPITERS DUE TO NONLINEAR TIDAL DISSIPATION WITHIN SOLAR-TYPE HOSTS
We study the orbital evolution of hot Jupiters due to the excitation and damping of tidally driven g-modes within solar-type host stars. Linearly resonant g-modes (the dynamical tide) are driven to such large amplitudes in the stellar core that they excite a sea of other g-modes through weakly nonli...
