This is very helpful. Thank you! It is definitely a more straightforward way to get the overlap integrals. Although, the results are similar to what I get using the displacement eigenfunction directly. The exception is high order p-modes in low mass stars. l=2 , 20 Msun comp_20_2.png l=2, 0.3 Msun c...

Hello. I am interested in tidal interactions due to close encounters between stars in clusters. As described in Press&Teukolsky 1977 (PT77) the energy deposited into a star following a close encounter can be encapsulated by a “tidal coupling constant” (really a function of the encounter distance and...
