Mass- and composition-dependent comparison of tidal heating HT (listed together with quality factor Q and Love number k2), radiogenic heating HR (for case 3 in Table 3), and induction heating HI for a fast rotator and an inclination between the star’s magnetic field axis and the rotational axis of 60°.

Notes. Values are given as time-averaged total energy release in the planet in TW or as time- and mantle-averaged values in pW kg−1 (planet-averaged in the case of tidal heating). For induction heating, two values are given in the last two columns: the time- and mantle-averaged heating values as well as the maximal (local) value during fastest stellar rotation.
