Needle in a Haystack: Finding Supermassive Black Hole-related Flares in the Zwicky Transient Facility Public Survey

Transient accretion events onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs), such as tidal disruption events (TDEs), Bowen Fluorescence Flares (BFFs), and active galactic nuclei (AGNs), which are accompanied by sudden increases of activity, offer a new window onto the SMBH population, accretion physics, and st...
