The Mars/Phobos case
The orbit of Phobos decays until the Roche limit is reached.
Roche limit:
Proportionality factor c depends on the nature of thesecondary: fluid c = 2.44 => aR = 10,500 km
solid c = 1.26 => aR = 5,500 km rubble pile c = 1.54 => aR = 6,700 km

Phobos is highly porous => „rubble pile“ (Andert et al., 2010)

Tides in extrasolar systems
• studying tides in extrasolar planetary systems requires the knowledge of mass and size of the planet and the star
• feasible with transiting planets combined with radial velocity observations and spectroscopy
• orbital decay => survivability• stellar spin-up• spin-orbit coupling => synchronization of rotation and revolution• circularization => e -> 0

• tidal forces affect the evolution of extrasolar planetary systems
• if a < 0.1 AU• if Mp is large• may force orbits towards e -> 0• may lead to the loss of companions• may force massive companions into double-
synchronous rotation• but the companion is not safe….
• may spin-up stellar rotation (look for old fast rotating stars)
