Coalescence of Black Hole-Neutron Star Binaries
Living Reviews in Relativity, 2011 We review the current status of general relativistic studies for the coalescence of black hole-neutron star (BH-NS) binaries. First, procedures for a solution of BH-NS binaries in quasi-equilibrium circular orbits and the numerical results, such as quasi-

The rebrightening of a ROSAT-selected tidal disruption event: repeated weak partial disruption flares from a quiescent galaxy? [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 The ROSAT-selected tidal disruption event (TDE) candidate RX J133157.6-324319.7 (J1331), was detected in 1993 as a bright (0.2–2 keV flux of (1.0 ± 0.1) × 10−12 erg s−1 cm−2), ultra-soft (kT = 0.11 ± 0.03 keV) X-ray flare from a quiescent galaxy (z = 0.

The Final Season Reimagined: 30 Tidal Disruption Events from the ZTF-I Survey [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2022 Tidal disruption events (TDEs) offer a unique way to study dormant black holes. While the number of observed TDEs has grown thanks to the emergence of wide-field surveys in the past few decades, questions regarding the nature of the observed optical, UV,

Fundamental scaling relationships revealed in the optical light curves of tidal disruption events [PDF]
, 2023 We present fundamental scaling relationships between properties of the optical/UV light curves of tidal disruption events (TDEs) and the mass of the black hole that disrupted the star. We have uncovered these relations from the late-time emission of TDEs.

Tidal Disruption of Near-Earth Asteroids during Close Encounters with Terrestrial Planets [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Numerical modeling has long suggested that gravitationally bound (or so-called rubble-pile) near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) can be destroyed by tidal forces during close and slow encounters with terrestrial planets.

Nitrogen enhancements 440 Myr after the Big Bang: super-solar N/O, a tidal disruption event or a dense stellar cluster in GN-z11? [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 Recent observations of GN-z11 with JWST/NIRSpec revealed numerous oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, and helium emission lines at z = 10.6. Using the measured line fluxes, we derive abundance ratios of individual elements within the interstellar medium (ISM) of

Two Candidate Obscured Tidal Disruption Events Coincident with High-energy Neutrinos [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Recently, three optical tidal disruption event (TDE) candidates discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) have been suggested to be coincident with high-energy neutrinos.

Partial stellar tidal disruption events and their rates [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 Tidal disruption events (TDEs) of stars operated by massive black holes (MBHs) will be detected in thousands by upcoming facilities such as the Vera Rubin Observatory. In this work, we assess the rates of standard total TDEs, destroying the entire star,
