Variability as a new discovery channel for Intermediate-Mass Black Holes in the Time Domain Era
Colin J. Burke, Priyamvada Natarajan
Between the groundbreaking detections of stellar-mass black holes by LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA and JWST's revelation of a surprisingly abundant population of supermassive black holes, one c…
A luminous and hot infrared through X-ray transient at a 5 kpc offset from a dwarf galaxy
Jean J. Somalwar, Vikram Ravi, Raffaella Margutti +20
We are searching for hot, constant-color, offset optical flares in the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) data stream that are from any galaxy in public imaging data from th…
Rates of Stellar Tidal Disruption Events around Intermediate-Mass Black Holes
Janet N. Y. Chang, Lixin Dai, Hugo Pfister +2
Rates of stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) around supermassive black holes (SMBHs) have been extensively calculated using the loss cone theory, while theoretical work on TDE r…
Detecting Population III Stars through Tidal Disruption Events in the Era of JWST and Roman
Rudrani Kar Chowdhury, Janet N. Y. Chang, Lixin Dai +1
The first generation metal-free stars, referred to as population III (Pop III) stars, are believed to be the first objects to form out of the pristine gas in the very early Univers…
