Science with a Small Two-Band UV-Photometry Mission III: Active Galactic Nuclei and Nuclear Transients by Zajaček, M., Czerny, B., Jaiswal, V. K., Štolc, M., Karas, V., Pandey, A., Pasham, D. R., Śniegowska, M., Witzany, V., Suková, P., Münz, F., Werner, N., Řípa, J., Merc, J., Labaj, M., Kurfürst, P., Krtička, J.

“…For tidal disruption events (TDEs), high-cadence UV monitoring is crucial for distinguishing among different scenarios for the origin of the UV emission. The small two-band UV space telescope will also provide information about the near- and far-UV continuum variability for rare transients, such as repetitive partial TDEs and jetted TDEs. …”
