Detection of disk-jet co-precession in a tidal disruption event

Yanan Wang, Zikun Lin, Linhui Wu +46

Theories and simulations predict that intense spacetime curvature near black holes bends the trajectories of light and matter, driving disk and jet precession under relativistic to…

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…

Exploring the properties of photosphere and emission lines for tidal disruption events based on the global solution of slim disk and winds

Yuehua Zhang, Qingwen Wu, Jiancheng Wu +2

The theoretical debris supply rate from a tidal disruption of stars can exceed about one hundred times of the Eddington accretion rate for a supermassive black…
