Internal Shocks from Variable Outflows in Classical Novae
Elad Steinberg, Brian D. Metzger
We present one-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations including radiative losses, of internal shocks in the outflows from classical novae, to explore the role of shocks in powering…
Thawing the frozen-in approximation: implications for self-gravity in deeply plunging tidal disruption events
Elad Steinberg, Eric R. Coughlin, Nicholas C. Stone +1
The tidal destruction of a star by a massive black hole, known as a tidal disruption event (TDE), is commonly modeled using the "frozen-in" approximation. Under this approximation,…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: A Shocking Shift in Paradigm for Classical Novae
Laura Chomiuk, Elias Aydi, Aliya-Nur Babul +10
The discovery of GeV gamma-rays from classical novae has led to a reassessment of these garden-variety explosions, and highlighted their importance for understanding radiative shoc…
Radio Emission from the unbound Debris of Tidal Disruption Events
Almog Yalinewich, Elad Steinberg, Tsvi Piran +1
When a star gets too close to a supermassive black hole, it is torn apart by the tidal forces. Roughly half of the stellar mass becomes unbound and flies away at tremendous velocit…
