Energy dissipation in m1 as a function of the separation a of the circular orbit. A polytropic index n = 1.5 is used. Empty symbols correspond to β0 = 1.2 and filled symbols to β0 = 2.0. The correspondence with the layer thickness ΔR1/R1 is, in triangles: ΔR1/R1 = 0.01, in squares: ΔR1/R1 = 0.03, in pentagons: ΔR1/R1 = 0.06. The continuous line is a function with an a-9 dependence on a.
