Intermediate-mass black holes
JE Greene, J Strader, LC Ho - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2020 - annualreviews.org
We describe ongoing searches for intermediate-mass black holes with M BH≈ 10–105 M⊙.
We review a range of search mechanisms, both dynamical and those that rely on accretion …

The final season reimagined: 30 tidal disruption events from the ZTF-I Survey
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) offer a unique way to study dormant black holes. While the
number of observed TDEs has grown thanks to the emergence of wide-field surveys in the …

Seventeen tidal disruption events from the first half of ZTF survey observations: entering a new era of population studies
While tidal disruption events (TDEs) have long been heralded as laboratories for the study of
quiescent black holes, the small number of known TDEs and uncertainties in their emission …

First tidal disruption events discovered by SRG/eROSITA: X-ray/optical properties and X-ray luminosity function at z < 0.6
We present the first sample of tidal disruption events (TDEs) discovered during the SRG all-
sky survey. These 13 events were selected among X-ray transients detected in the 0°< l< …

Hydrodynamical simulations to determine the feeding rate of black holes by the tidal disruption of stars: the importance of the impact parameter and stellar structure
J Guillochon, E Ramirez-Ruiz - The Astrophysical Journal, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
The disruption of stars by supermassive black holes has been linked to more than a dozen
flares in the cores of galaxies out to redshift z∼ 0.4. Modeling these flares properly requires …
