Kavli Affiliate: Ronald Remillard | First 5 Authors: Dheeraj R. Pasham, Matteo Lucchini, Tanmoy Laskar, Benjamin P. Gompertz, Shubham Srivastav | Summary: A black hole can launch a powerful relativistic jet after it tidally disrupts a star. If this jet fortuitously aligns with our line of sight, the overall brightness is Doppler boosted by several […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Principe | First 5 Authors: Philipp Weber, Sebastián Pérez, Greta Guidi, Nicolás T. Kurtovic, Alice Zurlo | Summary: Dense stellar environments as hosts of ongoing star formation increase the probability of gravitational encounters among stellar systems during the early stages of evolution. Stellar interaction may occur through non-recurring, hyperbolic or parabolic passages […]
