Resonant Excitation of Tilt Mode in Tidally Deformed Disks

In a previous paper (Kato 2013b), we have shown that in deformed disks a pair of trapped oscillation modes can be resonantly excited through couplings with disk deformation. In this paper we examine in what cases tilts are excited on tidally deformed disks by the above-mentioned wave-wave resonant process. The results show that tilts can be excited in various evolutional stages of tidally deformed disks, although the wave mode which becomes the pair to the tilt and the mode of tidal waves contributing to the resonance change by change of disk stages.
