Jaw Dropping Observations of Black Hole Devouring a Star Reveal Rapid Disk Formation – SciTechDaily
First clear confirmation of accretion disk formation in a tidal disruption event without x-ray emissions supports theoretical predictions. When a star passes too close to a supermassive black hole, tidal forces tear it apart, producing a bright flare of radia…

Computer simulation of the disruption of a star by a black hole shows the formation of an eccentric accretion disk of stellar material spiraling into the black hole. This image from a video of the simulation shows the early stage in the formation of the disk. Credit: Jamie Law-Smith and Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz
