Partial Tidal Disruption Events: Elixir of Life

Explore a 21-minute conference talk on partial tidal disruption events presented by Megha Sharma from Monash University. Delve into the fascinating world of tidal disruption events (TDEs) and their significance in understanding galactic nuclei and supermassive black holes. Learn about the latest advancements in wide-field survey capabilities that have accelerated the detection of these cosmic phenomena. Discover the challenges in modeling TDEs and how they impact our interpretation of observational data. Gain insights into the potential of TDEs as a tool for deciphering black hole demographics across cosmic time. This talk is part of the "Anticipating the Rising Tide of Tidal Disruption Events: Theory and Observation" conference held at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, bringing together experts in TDEs, variable Active Galactic Nuclei, and X-ray binaries to bridge the gap between theory and observation in this rapidly evolving field of astronomy.
