Pre-peak Emission in Tidal Disruption Events
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a 33-minute conference talk on pre-peak emission in Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) presented by Xiaoshan Huang from Caltech. Delve into the latest research on luminous accretion flares caused by stars destroyed by supermassive black holes' tidal fields. Gain insights into galactic nuclei properties and central black holes through this presentation, 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 phenomena like variable Active Galactic Nuclei and X-ray binaries, and outstanding questions in TDE theory and observation. Learn from experts in the field as they bridge theory and observation to unlock the potential of TDEs in deciphering black hole demographics across cosmic time.
