Blackholistic 2026 meeting report

Rob Fender, Jane Dai, Erin Kara +4

Accretion and relativistic jet formation take place across the black hole mass range, from black holes of just a few solar masses to those in excess of ten billion. Despite the eno…

Distinguishing Tidal Disruption Events from Impostors

Ann Zabludoff, Iair Arcavi, Stephanie La Massa +15

Recent claimed detections of tidal disruption events (TDEs) in multi-wavelength data have opened potential new windows into the evolution and properties of otherwise dormant superm…

Observable gravitational waves from tidal disruption events and their electromagnetic counterpart

Hugo Pfister, Martina Toscani, Thomas Hong Tsun Wong +3

We estimate the rate of tidal disruption events (TDEs) that will be detectable with future gravitational wave detectors as well as the most probable properties of these events and…

The Physics of Accretion Discs, Winds And Jets in Tidal Disruption Events

Jane Lixin Dai, Giuseppe Lodato, Roseanne M. Cheng

Accretion onto black holes is an efficient mechanism in converting the gas mass-energy into energetic outputs as radiation, wind and jet. Tidal disruption events, in which stars ar…

Discovery of a Fast Iron Low-ionization Outflow in the Early Evolution of the Nearby Tidal Disruption Event AT2019qiz

Tiara Hung, Ryan J. Foley, S. Veilleux +16

We report the results of ultraviolet (UV) and optical photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2019qiz. Our follow-up observations started 10…

The Process of Stellar Tidal Disruption by Supermassive Black Holes. The first pericenter passage

Elena M. Rossi, Nicholas C. Stone, Jamie A. P. Law-Smith +4

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are among the brightest transients in the optical, ultraviolet, and X-ray sky. These flares are set into motion when a star is torn apart by the tida…

Simulations of Tidal Disruption Events

Giuseppe Lodato, Roseanne M. Cheng, Clement Bonnerot +1

Numerical simulations have historically played a major role in understanding the hydrodynamics of the tidal disruption process. Given the complexity of the geometry of the system,…

Double-Peaked Balmer Emission Indicating Prompt Accretion Disk Formation in an X-Ray Faint Tidal Disruption Event

Tiara Hung, Ryan J. Foley, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +13

We present the multi-wavelength analysis of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT~2018hyz (ASASSN-18zj). From follow-up optical spectroscopy, we detect the first unambiguous case of…
