Extended Emission-line Regions in Poststarburst Galaxies Hosting Tidal Disruption Events

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We report the discovery of an extended emission-line region (EELR) in MUSE observations of Markarian 950, a nearby ( z = 0.01628) poststarburst (PSB) galaxy that hosted the tidal disruption event (TDE) iPTF 16fnl.

Tidal Disruption Events through the Lens of the Cooling Envelope Model

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The cooling envelope model for tidal disruption events (TDEs) postulates that while the stellar debris streams rapidly dissipate their bulk kinetic energy (“circularize”), this does not necessarily imply rapid feeding of the supermassive black hole (SMBH)

A New Population of Mid-infrared-selected Tidal Disruption Events: Implications for Tidal Disruption Event Rates and Host Galaxy Properties

The Astrophysical Journal
Most tidal disruption events (TDEs) are currently found in time-domain optical and soft X-ray surveys, both of which are prone to significant obscuration. The infrared (IR), however, is a powerful probe of dust-enshrouded environments; hence, we recently

Enhancing the rate of tidal disruptions of stars by a self-gravitating disc around a massive central black hole

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
We further study the idea that a self-gravitating accretion disc around a supermassive black hole can increase the rate of gradual orbital decay of stellar trajectories (and hence tidal disruption events) by setting some stars on eccentric trajectories ...

Optical Appearance of Eccentric Tidal Disruption Events

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Stars approaching supermassive black holes can be tidally disrupted. Despite being expected to emit X-rays, tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been largely observed in optical bands, which is poorly understood.
