This work has shown that recoiling black holes can disrupt stars far outside a galactic nucleus, errors in the traditional literature have strongly overestimated the maximum luminosity of “deeply plunging” tidal disruptions, the precession of transient accretion disks can encode the spins of supermassive black holes, and much more. This work is based on but differs from the original thesis that was formally defended at Harvard, which received both the Roger Doxsey Award and the Chambliss Astronomy Achievement Student Award from the American Astronomical Society.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053AstrophysicsGravitationSpace sciencesAstrophysics and Astroparticleshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22022Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030Astrophysics.Gravitation.Space sciences.Astrophysics and Astroparticles.Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory.Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics).500.5520523.01530Stone Nicholas Chamberlainauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1059815BOOK9910300413203321The Tidal Disruption of Stars by Supermassive Black Holes2508511UNINA
