Predicting the Properties of the Fallback Rate from Tidal Disruption Events: Investigating the Maximum Gravity Model
Julia Fancher, Ananya Bandopadhyay, Eric R. Coughlin +1
A star destroyed by the tidal field of a supermassive black hole (SMBH) in a tidal disruption event (TDE) gives rise to a luminous flare. TDEs are being detected at an ever-increas…

The Peak of the Fallback Rate from Tidal Disruption Events: Dependence on Stellar Type
Ananya Bandopadhyay, Julia Fancher, Aluel Athian +7
A star completely destroyed in a tidal disruption event (TDE) ignites a luminous flare that is powered by the fallback of tidally stripped debris to a supermassive black hole (SMBH…

On the relative importance of shocks and self-gravity in modifying tidal disruption event debris streams
Julia Fancher, Eric R. Coughlin, Chris Nixon
In a tidal disruption event (TDE), a star is destroyed by the gravitational field of a supermassive black hole (SMBH) to produce a stream of debris, some of which accretes onto the…
