Reverberation in Tidal Disruption Events: Dust Echoes, Coronal Emission Lines, Multi-wavelength Cross-correlations, and QPOs

Abstract Stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) are typically discovered by transient emission due to accretion or shocks of the stellar debris. Yet this luminous flare can be reprocessed by gas or dust that inhabits a galactic nucleus, resulting in multiple reverberation signals. Nuc...
