Abstract

Solar-like stars evolve through the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) phase. This phase is characterized by increased radii, high luminosities, and significant mass loss. In order to understand the survival of companions during this phase, and explain the presence of planets orbiting white dwarfs, it is essential to examine the orbital evolution of these systems. Several physical mechanisms come into play for AGB stars, including stellar mass loss and tidal interactions between the star and its companion. Assessing mass-loss rates and accretion to the companion requires complex radiation-hydro-chemical simulations. Furthermore, comprehending the full history of tidal dissipation in low-mass stars during their late evolutionary stages, which strongly depends on their internal structure, requires dedicated analytical and numerical studies.
