Tides in rotating barotropic fluid bodies: the contribution of inertial waves and the role of internal structure

Tides in rotating barotropic fluid bodies: the contribution of inertial waves and the role of internal structure

We discuss the linear response to low-frequency tidal forcing of fluid bodies that are slowly and uniformly rotating, are neutrally stratified and may contain a solid or fluid core. This problem may be regarded as a simplified model of astrophysical tides in convective regions of stars and giant planets. The …
