Double Tidal Disruption Events or Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events in AT 2020vdq [PDF]
The Astrophysical JournalAT 2020vdq has been known as a candidate of repeating partial tidal disruption events (pTDEs) due to its two flares with a time interval of ∼1000 days.

Extremely Relativistic Tidal Disruption Events
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 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 effect: orbits that wind several times around a black hole and then leave ...

Stellar dynamics and tidal disruption events in galactic nuclei
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 The disruption of a star by the tidal field of a massive black hole is the final outcome of a chain of complex dynamical processes in the host galaxy. I introduce the “loss cone problem”, and describe the many theoretical and numerical challenges on the ...

Shocks Power Tidal Disruption Events
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Accretion of debris seems to be the natural mechanism to power the radiation emitted during a tidal disruption event (TDE), in which a supermassive black hole tears apart a star.

Circumbinary discs from tidal disruption events [PDF]
, 2017 Tidal disruption events, which occur when a star is shredded by the tidal field of a supermassive black hole, provide a means of fueling black hole accretion. Here we show, using a combination of three body orbit integrations and hydrodynamic simulations,

Rubin Observatory’s Survey Strategy Performance for Tidal Disruption Events [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are rare transients, which are considered as promising tools for probing supermassive black holes in quiescent galaxies.

Tidal disruption of fuzzy dark matter subhalo cores [PDF]
, 2018 We study tidal stripping of fuzzy dark matter (FDM) subhalo cores using simulations of the Schr\"{o}dinger-Poisson equations and analyze the dynamics of tidal disruption, highlighting the differences with standard cold dark matter.

Nuclear Physics with Gravitational Waves from Neutron Stars Disrupted by Black Holes
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Gravitational waves from neutron star–black hole (NSBH) mergers that undergo tidal disruption provide a potential avenue to study the equation of state of neutron stars and hence the behavior of matter at its most extreme densities.

Interpretation of the Observed Neutrino Emission from Three Tidal Disruption Events
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Three Tidal Disruption Event candidates (AT2019 dsg , AT2019 fdr , and AT2019 aalc ) have been associated with high-energy astrophysical neutrinos in multimessenger follow-ups.

Tidal stability of giant molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
, 2013 Star formation does not occur until the onset of gravitational collapse inside giant molecular clouds. However, the conditions that initiate cloud collapse and regulate the star formation process remain poorly understood.
