Tidal disruption event discs are larger than they seem: removing systematic biases in TDE X-ray spectral modelling
The physical sizes of tidal disruption event (TDE) accretion discs are regularly inferred, from modelling of the TDEs X-ray spectrum as a single-temperature blackbody, to be smaller than the plausible event horizons of the black holes which they occur around – a clearly unphysical result. In this Ll...
