A Unified Ionization Framework for the Spectroscopic Diversity of Tidal Disruption Events
Lars L. Thomsen, Lixin Dai, Daniel Kasen +4
Optical tidal disruption events (TDEs) exhibit extremely broad emission lines (-) and are observationally classified into four spectroscopic typ…
Prospects for Measuring Black Hole Masses using TDEs with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory
K. Decker French, Brenna Mockler, Nicholas Earl +1
Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) provide an opportunity to study supermassive black holes that are otherwise quiescent. The Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time will be capa…
Tidal Disruption Event Demographics in Supermassive Black Hole Binaries Over Cosmic Times
Denyz Melchor, Smadar Naoz, Suvi Gezari +1
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) offer a unique probe of supermassive black hole (SMBH) demographics, but their observed rates remain difficult to reconcile with standard single-SMBH…
On the Orbital Effects of Stellar Collisions in Galactic Nuclei: Tidal Disruption Events and Ejected Stars
Sanaea C. Rose, Brenna Mockler
Dense stellar clusters surround the supermassive black holes (SMBH) in galactic nuclei. Interactions within the cluster can alter the stellar orbits, occasionally driving a star in…
Tidal Disruption Events from the Combined Effects of Two-Body Relaxation and the Eccentric Kozai-Lidov Mechanism
Denyz Melchor, Brenna Mockler, Smadar Naoz +2
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) take place when a star ventures too close to a supermassive black hole (SMBH) and becomes ruptured. One of the leading proposed physical mechanisms o…
