gyre_tides
The gyre_tides frontend calculates the response of
a stellar model to tidal forcing by a orbiting point-mass
companion. The general flow of execution is outlined in the chart to
the right. After reading the namelist input file and the model,
gyre_tides loops over &tide namelist groups,
processing each in turn.
For a given group, gyre_tides evaluates the response to
partial tidal potentials spanning a range of harmonic degrees
\(\ell\), azimuthal orders \(m\) and Fourier harmonics
\(k\) (see the Linearized Equations section). With each
partial potential, the response wavefunctions and other data are
optionally written to a detail file. At the end
of the run, response data from all partial responses (across all
&tide groups) are optionally written to a summary file.
The table below lists which namelist groups, and in what number, should appear in namelist input files for gyre_tides.
