"Circularization" vs. Accretion -- What Powers Tidal Disruption Events?
Tsvi Piran, Gilad Svirski, Julian Krolik +2
A tidal disruption event (TDE) takes place when a star passes near enough to a massive black hole to be disrupted. About half the star's matter is given elliptical trajectories wit…
General Relativistic Hydrodynamic Simulation of Accretion Flow from a Stellar Tidal Disruption
Hotaka Shiokawa, Julian H. Krolik, Roseanne M. Cheng +2
We study how the matter dispersed when a supermassive black hole tidally disrupts a star joins an accretion flow. Combining a relativistic hydrodynamic simulation of the stellar di…
Tidal disruption of a star in the Schwarzschild spacetime: relativistic effects in the return rate of debris
Roseanne M. Cheng, Tamara Bogdanovic
Motivated by an improved multi-wavelength observational coverage of the transient sky, we investigate the importance of relativistic effects in disruptions of stars by non-spinning…
