Close Encounters of Tight Binary Stars with Stellar-mass Black Holes
Taeho Ryu, Rosalba Perna, Ruediger Pakmor +3
Strong dynamical interactions among stars and compact objects are expected in a variety of astrophysical settings, such as star clusters and the disks of active galactic nuclei. Vi…
Extremely Relativistic Tidal Disruption Events
Taeho Ryu, Julian Krolik, Tsvi Piran
Extreme tidal disruption events (eTDEs), which occur when a star passes very close to a supermassive black hole, may provide a way to observe a long-sought general relativistic eff…
Close Encounters of Stars with Stellar-mass Black Hole Binaries
Taeho Ryu, Rosalba Perna, Yihan Wang
Many astrophysical environments, from star clusters and globular clusters to the disks of Active Galactic Nuclei, are characterized by frequent interactions between stars and the c…
Tidal Disruption Events by Compact Supermassive Black Hole Binaries
Taeho Ryu, Alessandro A. Trani, Nathan W. C. Leigh
Stars can be tidally destroyed or swallowed by supermassive black hole binaries. Using a large number of accurate few-body simulations, we investigate the enhancement and suppressi…
