Tides and Dumbbell Dynamics
Copyright policy )Tides and Dumbbell Dynamics
We discuss a model describing the effects of tidal dissipation on satellite's orbits. Tidal bulges are described in terms of a dumbbell, coupled to the rotation by a dissipative interaction. The assumptions on this dissipative coupling turns out to be crucial in the evolution of the system.
