The Influence of Black Hole Binarity on Tidal Disruption Events
Eric R. Coughlin, Philip J. Armitage, Giuseppe Lodato +1
Mergers are fundamental to the standard paradigm of galaxy evolution, and provide a natural formation mechanism for supermassive black hole binaries. The formation process of such…
Galactic chimney sweeping: the effect of 'gradual' stellar feedback mechanisms on the evolution of dwarf galaxies
L. Garratt-Smithson, G. A. Wynn, C. Power +1
We investigate the impact of time-resolved `gradual' stellar feedback processes in high redshift dwarf spheroidal galaxies. Here `gradual' feedback refers to individual stellar fee…
Partial Stellar Disruption by a Supermassive Black Hole: Is the Lightcurve Really Proportional to ?
Eric R. Coughlin, C. J. Nixon
The tidal disruption of a star by a supermassive black hole, and the subsequent accretion of the disrupted debris by that black hole, offers a direct means to study the inner regio…
Ultra-deep tidal disruption events: prompt self-intersections and observables
Siva Darbha, Eric R. Coughlin, Daniel Kasen +1
A star approaching a supermassive black hole (SMBH) can be torn apart in a tidal disruption event (TDE). We examine ultra-deep TDEs, a new regime in which the disrupted debris appr…
Generalised warped disk equations
Rebecca G. Martin, Stephen H. Lubow, J. E. Pringle +6
The manner in which warps in accretion disks evolve depends on the magnitude of the viscosity. For small viscosity the warp evolves in a wave-like manner; for large visc…
