On the tidal interaction of a solar-type star with an orbiting companion: Excitation of g mode oscillation and orbital evolution
We calculate the dynamical tides raised on a non-rotating solar-type star by a close stellar or planetary companion. Dissipation arising from a turbulent viscosity operating in the convection zone and radiative damping in the radiative core are considered. We compute the torque exerted on the star b...
