On the mass and luminosity functions of tidal disruption flares: rate suppression due to black hole event horizons
Sjoert van Velzen
The tidal disruption of a star by a massive black hole is expected to yield a luminous flare of thermal emission. About two dozen of these stellar tidal disruption flares (TDFs) ma…

Optical/UV-to-X-Ray Echoes from the Tidal Disruption Flare ASASSN-14li
Dheeraj R. Pasham, S. Bradley Cenko, Aleksander Sadowski +4
We carried out the first multi-wavelength (optical/UV and X-ray) photometric reverberation mapping of a tidal disruption flare (TDF) ASASSN-14li. We find that its X-ray variations…
