Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!
Explore a 22-minute conference talk on repeated tidal disruption events in supermassive black hole binaries, presented by Grant Weldon from UCLA. Delve into the fascinating world of tidal disruption events (TDEs), where stars are destroyed by the immense tidal fields of supermassive black holes, resulting in luminous accretion flares. 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 held 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. Learn about the accelerated detection rates of these events due to improved wide-field survey capabilities across the electromagnetic spectrum.
