Dr. Brenna Mockler -- When Black Holes Get Hungry
Podcast: The Astrophysics PodcastPublished On: Sun Dec 01 2024
Description: What do black holes like to eat? Sometimes a steady diet of interstellar gas just isn't enough and a black hole needs to snack on a whole star.

Dr. Brenna Mockler tells us all about these events, called "Tidal Disruption Events", and what we can learn from observing them.
