Deviation of Stellar Orbits from Test Particle Trajectories Around Sgr A* Due to Tides and Winds
Dimitrios Psaltis, Gongjie Li, Abraham Loeb
Monitoring the orbits of stars around Sgr A* offers the possibility of detecting the precession of their orbital planes due to frame dragging, of measuring the spin and quadrupole…

Accumulated Tidal Heating of Stars Over Multiple Pericenter Passages Near SgrA*
Gongjie Li, Abraham Loeb
We consider the long-term tidal heating of a star by the supermassive black hole at the Galactic center, SgrA*. We show that gravitational interaction with background stars leads t…

Gravitational Wave Heating of Stars and Accretion Disks
Gongjie Li, Bence Kocsis, Abraham Loeb
We investigate the electromagnetic (EM) counterpart of gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by a supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) through the viscous dissipation of the GW energ…
