This video illustrates how a star can be shredded into a streamer of hot gas as it passes close to a supermassive black hole. Such encounters are known as “Tidal Disruption Events” or TDEs.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This video illustrates how a star can be shredded into a streamer of hot gas as it passes close to a supermassive black hole. Such encounters are known as “Tidal Disruption Events” or TDEs. It is the tremendous shear forces causes by the rapidly-increasing pull of gravity that effectively stretches the stars material out into a long stream as the stellar material in the side closer to the black hole is accelerated faster than the side that is farther away. Note that in most TDEs that the streamer of hot gas does not immediately form an accretion disk, but must lose orbital energy over multiple passes before it can fall closer to the black hole. This movie depicts only the first orbital pass of such a system.
