The Faintest, Extremely Variable X-ray Tidal Disruption Event from a Supermassive Black Hole Binary?

Mengqiu Huang, Yongquan Xue, Shuo Li +30

Tidal disruption events (TDEs), which occur when stars enter the tidal radii of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and are subsequently torn apart by their tidal forces, represent in…

Formation Rate of Quasiperiodic Eruptions in Galactic Nuclei Containing Single and Dual Supermassive Black Holes

Chunyang Cao, F. K. Liu, Xian Chen +1

Quasiperiodic eruptions (QPEs) are a novel class of transients recently discovered in a few extragalactic nuclei. It has been suggested that a QPE can be produced by a main-sequenc…

A Recent Supermassive Black Hole Binary in the Galactic Center Unveiled by the Hypervelocity Stars

Chunyang Cao, Fukun Liu, Shuo Li +2

When a binary of early-type stars from the young stellar populations in the Galactic center (GC) region is scattered to the vicinity of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) Sgr~$\rm{…

Tracing the Evolution of SMBHs and Stellar Objects in Galaxy Mergers: An Multi-mass Direct N-body Model

Shuo Li, Shiyan Zhong, Peter Berczik +3

By using direct N-body numerical simulations, we model the dynamical co-evolution of two supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and the surrounding stars in merging galaxies. In order to…

Milli-Hertz Gravitational Wave Background Produced by Quasi-Periodic Eruptions

Xian Chen, Yu Qiu, Shuo Li +1

Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) are important targets for future space-borne gravitational-wave (GW) detectors, such as the Laser Interferometer Sapce Antenna (LISA). Recent w…

X-ray flares from the stellar tidal disruption by a candidate supermassive black hole binary

Xinwen Shu, Wenjie Zhang, Shuo Li +8

Optical transient surveys have led to the discovery of dozens of stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) by massive black hole in the centers of galaxies. Despite extensive searches…
