Tidal Dissipation and Eccentricity Pumping: Implications for the Depth of the Secondary Eclipse of 55 Cnc e
2013
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union
We use the super-Earth 55 Cnc e (Fischer et al. 2008 ) as a case-study to address an observable effect of tidal heating. This transiting short-period planet belongs to a compact multiple system with massive planets. We investigate whether planet-planet interactions can force the eccentricity of this planet to a level that would affect the eclipse depth observed with Spitzer.
