Scientific paper

Many extrasolar planets have been discovered very close to sun-like stars (<0.1 AU). These planets are exposed to extreme tidal interactions with the star. We review several aspects of tidal interactions as orbit evolution and circularisation, the tidal locking of planetary rotation and revolution, and changes in the stellar rotation. These concepts are applied to the known extrasolar planets with semi major axes less than 0.1 AU.
