X-ray flares from the stellar tidal disruption by a candidate supermassive black hole binary

The discrepancy between the optical and X-ray properties of tidal disruption events (TDE) is an unresolved issue. Here, the authors show delayed X-ray brightening after the optical flare in TDE OGLE16aaa followed by several flux dips during the decay phase that could be explained by the presence of...

Sumario:The discrepancy between the optical and X-ray properties of tidal disruption events (TDE) is an unresolved issue. Here, the authors show delayed X-ray brightening after the optical flare in TDE OGLE16aaa followed by several flux dips during the decay phase that could be explained by the presence of supermassive black hole binary or patchy obscuration.
