Synchronisation of a tidal binary by inward orbital migration. The case of Pluto and Charon
Tidal synchronization of Pluto-Charon can occur via inward migration from a distant capture, producing temporary 3:2 to 7:2 resonances, lower dissipation, and reduced tidal stress compared with recession models.
