TLDR
In this paper, the two-body problem and the restricted three body problem are considered. And the disturbing function is extended to include the spin-orbit coupling and the resonance perturbations.Abstract:

Seismicity on tidally active solid-surface worlds
Terry Hurford,Wade G. Henning,Wade G. Henning,Ross Maguire,Vedran Lekic,Nicholas Schmerr,Mark P. Panning,Veronica J. Bray,Michael Manga,Simon A. Kattenhorn,Lynnae C. Quick,Alyssa Rhoden +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors formalize a model to describe the tidally-driven seismic activity on planetary bodies based on tidal dissipation and apply this model to predict the amount of seismic energy release and largest seismic events on other moons in our Solar System and exoplanetary bodies.

The effect of Jupiter oscillations on Juno gravity measurements
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the perturbation to Jupiter's gravitational field using the oscillation spectrum of a polytrope with index 1 and the corresponding radial eigenfunctions.

The forced libration of Europa’s deformable shell and its dependence on interior parameters
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a differential libration model that takes into account the effect of diurnal deformation on the forced longitudinal libration of Europa's internal solid layers, and applied their model to a rather large range of possible interior models of Europa to investigate the dependence of the shell libration amplitude on the geophysical parameters that characterize the interior of Europa.

Energy optimization in extrasolar planetary systems: the transition from peas-in-a-pod to runaway growth
TL;DR: In the case of super-Earth-class planets with masses of order m_p ∼ 10m⊕, this paper showed that energy optimization leads to nearly equal mass planets, with circular orbits confined to a plane.

Dissipation in rocky planets for strong tidal forcing
N. Clausen,Andreas Tilgner +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reproduce a previously published calculation for the tidal dissipation in Io and extend the employed model to investigate the heat transport mechanism and the thickness of Io's asthenosphere.
