206. Alerts - and tidal disruption events

Tidal disruption events, or TDEs, result from a star passing sufficiently close to a supermassive black hole that tidal forces overcome its self-gravity. Predicted 50 years ago, some 100 such events are now known. The Gaia science alerts system has discovered 25, and I will describe what is known about the two brightest, Gaia19bvo and Gaia19eks.

Abstract

Tidal disruption events, or TDEs, result from a star passing sufficiently close to a supermassive black hole that tidal forces overcome its self-gravity. Predicted 50 years ago, some 100 such events are now known. The Gaia science alerts system has discovered 25, and I will describe what is known about the two brightest, Gaia19bvo and Gaia19eks.
