Understanding Tidal Disruption Events Through Their Polarized Emission
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the polarized emission of Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) in this 30-minute conference talk by Yannis Liodakis from Marshall Space Flight Center. Delivered as part of the "Anticipating the Rising Tide of Tidal Disruption Events: Theory and Observation" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, delve into the unique insights TDEs provide about galactic nuclei and supermassive black holes. Examine recent advances in wide-field survey capabilities that have accelerated TDE detection rates across the electromagnetic spectrum. Investigate theoretical uncertainties in TDE modeling and their impact on observational understanding. Connect TDE research to related fields such as variable Active Galactic Nuclei and X-ray binaries. Gain valuable knowledge about the latest developments in TDE theory and observation, and explore the potential of TDEs as a tool for deciphering black hole demographics across cosmic time.
