Multi-scale variability in the optical afterglow of GRB 251013C from high-cadence LAST observations
R. Konno, E. O. Ofek, S. Garrappa +8
Context. Optical afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are often described by smooth power-law decays, but deviations such as flares and rebrightenings provide important constraint…
The Delay Time Distribution of Tidal Disruption Events
Margaret Shepherd, K. Decker French, Nicholas C. Stone +6
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) can be observed when stars get too close to supermassive black holes and are torn apart and accreted. The delay time distribution of TDEs, or rate of…
Strong Scatterings Invalidate Proposed Models of Enhanced TDE Rates in Post-Starburst Galaxies
Odelia Teboul, Hagai Perets
Stars wandering too close to supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can be ripped apart by the tidal forces of the black hole. Recent optical surveys have revealed that E+A galaxies are…
A Unified Theory of Jetted Tidal Disruption Events: From Promptly Escaping Relativistic to Delayed Transrelativistic Jets
Odelia Teboul, Brian D. Metzger
Only a tiny fraction ~ 1% of stellar tidal disruption events (TDE) generate powerful relativistic jets evidenced by luminous hard X-ray and radio emissions. We propose that a key p…
Loss Cone Shielding
Odelia Teboul, Nicholas C. Stone, Jeremiah P. Ostriker
A star wandering close enough to a massive black hole (MBH) can be ripped apart by the tidal forces of the black hole. The advent of wide-field surveys at many wavelengths has quic…
Impact of the ISM magnetic field on GRB afterglow polarization
O. Teboul, N. Shaviv
Linear polarization has been measured in several GRB afterglows. After a few days, polarization arises from the forward shock emission which depends on the post-shock magnetic fiel…
Emission of cocoon afterglow for short Gamma Ray Burst : a counterpart of gravitational waves?
O Teboul, T Piran
The three gravitational wave events detected by LIGO are opening a new era for high- energy astrophysics. Nevertheless, location of such events remain unknown. A promising solution…
