Growth of a Massive Black Hole in a Dense Star Cluster Via Tidal Disruption Accretion
Stars that are tidally disrupted by a massive black hole (MBH) may contribute significantly to the growth of the MBH, especially in dense nuclear star clusters. Yet, this tidal disruption accretion (TDA) of stars onto the MBH has largely been overlooked compared to the gas accretion (GA) channel in...
