The spin and orbital motions undergo a coupled evolution over astronomical timescales, which is relevant for many types of binary star, short-period extrasolar planetary systems and the satellites of the giant planets in the solar system. I review the principal mechanisms that have been discussed for tidal dissipation in stars and giant planets in both linear and nonlinear regimes. I also compare the expectations based on theoretical models with recent observational findings.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-06-09T15:00:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "giant planets", "tidal dissipation", "short-period extrasolar planetary systems", "induce tidal distortions", "orbital motions undergo" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1146/annurev-astro-081913-035941", "journal": "Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics", "year": 2014, "month": "Aug", "volume": 52, "pages": 171 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 46, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1299847, "adsabs": "2014ARA&A..52..171O" } } }
