Electromagnetic transients and gravitational waves from white dwarf disruptions by stellar black holes in triple systems
Mergers of binaries comprising compact objects can give rise to explosive transient events, heralding the birth of exotic objects that cannot be formed through single-star evolution. Using a large number of direct N-body simulations, we explore the possibility that a white dwarf (WD) is dynamically...
