Scattering of internal gravity waves
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical PhysicsSelwyn College, 2011-04-19)
Internal gravity waves play a fundamental role in the dynamics of stably stratified regions
of the atmosphere and ocean. In addition to the radiation of momentum and energy remote from
generation sites, internal waves ...
Tidal interactions between planets and stars
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical PhysicsSelwyn College, 2011-06-07)
Since the first discovery of an extrasolar planet around a solar-type star, observers
have detected over 500 planets outside the solar system. Many of these planets have
Jovian masses and orbit their host stars in orbits ...
