Effect of the rotation, tidal dissipation history and metallicity of stars on the evolution of close-in planets

Since 1995, numerous close-in planets have been discovered around low-mass stars (M to A-type stars). These systems are susceptible to be tidally evolving, in particular the dissipation of the kinetic energy of tidal flows in the host star may modify its rotational evolution and also shape the orbital architecture of …
