First Light from Tidal Disruption Events
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the latest research on tidal disruption events (TDEs) in this 25-minute conference talk by Clement Bonnerot from the University of Birmingham. Delve into the phenomenon of first light from TDEs, where stars are destroyed by the immense tidal field of supermassive black holes, resulting in luminous accretion flares. Gain unique insights into galactic nuclei properties and central black holes through this presentation, recorded as part of the "Anticipating the Rising Tide of Tidal Disruption Events: Theory and Observation" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Discover recent advances in TDE understanding, connections to related astrophysical phenomena, and outstanding questions in TDE theory and observation.
