Tidal star-planet interaction and its observed impact on stellar activity in planet-hosting wide binary systems
Tidal interaction between an exoplanet and its host star is a possible pathway to transfer angular momentum between the planetary orbit and the stellar spin. In cases where the planetary orbital period is shorter than the stellar rotation period, this may lead to angular momentum being transferred i...
