The Role of Stellar Spin in Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events

Ananya Bandopadhyay, Benjamin Amend, Eric R. Coughlin +3

The repeated tidal stripping of a star by a supermassive black hole, known as a repeating partial tidal disruption event (rpTDE), can give rise to a transient that rebrightens mont…

Repeating Nuclear Transients from Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events

Ananya Bandopadhyay, Eric R. Coughlin, Julia Fancher +2

Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A s…

The Maximum Gravity Model for partial Tidal Disruption Events: Mass Loss, Peak Fallback Rate and Dependence on Stellar Properties

Ananya Bandopadhyay, Eric R. Coughlin, C. J. Nixon

A star entering the tidal sphere of a supermassive black hole (SMBH) can be partially stripped of mass, resulting in a partial tidal disruption event (TDE). Here we develop an anal…

Comprehensive X-ray Observations of the Exceptional Ultra-long X-ray and Gamma-ray Transient GRB 250702B with Swift, NuSTAR, and Chandra: Insights from the X-ray Afterglow Properties

Brendan O'Connor, Ramandeep Gill, James DeLaunay +22

GRB 250702B is an exceptional transient that produced multiple episodes of luminous gamma-ray radiation lasting for ks, placing it among the class of ultra-long gamma-ray bur…

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 Double Tidal Disruption Event AT 2022dbl Implies That at Least Some "Standard" Optical TDEs are Partial Disruptions

Lydia Makrygianni, Iair Arcavi, Megan Newsome +37

Flares produced following the tidal disruption of stars by supermassive black holes can reveal the properties of the otherwise dormant majority of black holes and the physics of ac…
