A Tidal Disruption Event from an Intermediate-mass Black Hole Revealed by Comprehensive Multi-wavelength Observations

Jialai Wang, Mengqiu Huang, Yongquan Xue +12

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) occur when a star crosses the tidal radius of a black hole (BH) and is ripped apart, providing a powerful way to probe dormant BHs over a wide mass r…

Inefficient Circularization, Delayed Stream-Disk Interaction and Reprocessing: A Five-Stage Model for the Intermediate-Mass Black Hole Tidal Disruption Event EP240222a

Wenkai Li, Ning Jiang, Tinggui Wang +7

EP240222a is the first intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) tidal disruption event (TDE) captured in real-time with multi-wavelength observations and spectroscopic confirmation. How…

Ultraviolet Spectral Evidence for Ansky as a Slowly Evolving Featureless Tidal Disruption Event with Quasiperiodic Eruptions

Jiazheng Zhu, Ning Jiang, Yibo Wang +13

X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are rare and enigmatic phenomena that increasingly show a connection to tidal disruption events (TDEs). However, the recently discovered QPEs…

A fast powerful X-ray transient from possible tidal disruption of a white dwarf

Dongyue Li, Wenda Zhang, Jun Yang +97

Stars captured by black holes (BHs) can be torn apart by strong tidal forces, producing electromagnetic flares. To date, more than 100 tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been obse…

Probing the Strong Gravity Region of Black Holes with eXTP

Qingcui Bu, Cosimo Bambi, Lijun Gou +42

We present the novel capabilities of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission to study the strong gravity region around stellar-mass black holes in X-ray binary sys…

EP241021a: a months-duration X-ray transient with luminous optical and radio emission

Shu Xinwen, Yang Lei, Yang Haonan +82

We present the discovery of a peculiar X-ray transient, EP241021a, by the Einstein Probe (EP) mission, and the results from multiwavelength follow-up observations. The transient wa…
