The Equilibrium Tide Model for Tidal Friction
TL;DR: In this paper, the Laplace-Runge-Lenz vector is used to model the dissipative force of a time-dependent tide in a star's rotation and a companion in a possibly eccentric orbit.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Accretion Instability in Soft X-Ray Transients
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the distributions in a (Porb, ) diagram can be understood with the dwarf nova instability criterion, if that is adapted to include X-ray heating of the disk.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Tidal Interaction of a Solar-Type Star with an Orbiting Companion: Excitation of g-Mode Oscillation and Orbital Evolution
TL;DR: In this article, the dynamical tides raised on a non-rotating solar-type star by a close stellar or planetary companion are calculated and compared to the results obtained by assuming that a very small frequency limit can be taken in order to calculate the tidal response (equilibrium tide).

Quasiperiodicity in cataclysmic variable stars caused by solar-type magnetic cycles
Brian Warner,Brian Warner +1 more
TL;DR: In the nova remnant DQ Herculis the observed variations in orbital period and quiescent magnitude are consistent with this mechanism as mentioned in this paper, but accretion onto the white dwarf, from an accretion disk acquired from its companion, cannot explain the observed variation of the 71-second oscillations.

Effects of tidally enhanced stellar wind on the horizontal branch morphology of globular clusters
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the evolutionary consequences of red giants in binaries by including tidally enhanced stellar winds, and examined the effects on the horizontal branch morphology of GCs.
