Travel Disruption: Three Case Studies [PDF]
This report draws together the findings of three studies of travel disruption and its impacts on travellers: the volcanic ash cloud which disrupted aviation in Europe in 2010, the loss of road bridges between November 2009 and April 2010 at Workington ...

The γ-ray afterglows of tidal disruption events. [PDF]
Mon Not R Astron Soc, 2016 A star wandering too close to a supermassive black hole (SMBH) will be tidally disrupted. Previous studies of such "tidal disruption event" (TDE) mostly focus on the stellar debris that are bound to the system, because they give rise to luminous flares.

A bright year for tidal disruptions [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 When a star is tidally disrupted by a supermassive black hole (BH), roughly half of its mass falls back to the BH at super-Eddington rates. Being tenuously gravitationally bound and unable to cool radiatively, only a small fraction f_in << 1 of the returning debris will likely be incorporated into the disk and accrete, with the vast majority ...

Simulations of Tidal Disruption Events [PDF]
, 2020 Numerical simulations have historically played a major role in understanding the hydrodynamics of the tidal disruption process. Given the complexity of the geometry of the system, the challenges posed by the problem have indeed stimulated much work on ...

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.

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.

A Unified Model for Tidal Disruption Events [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2018 Abstract In the past few years wide-field optical and UV transient surveys and X-ray telescopes have allowed us to identify a few dozen candidate tidal disruption events (TDEs). While in theory the physical processes in TDEs are ubiquitous, a few distinct classes of TDEs have been observed.
