Extended Data Fig. 10: Properties of optical/UV black body fits.
From: Stream–disk shocks as the origins of peak light in tidal disruption events

The occurrence rates for black body properties of our simulation at t = 65 days, binned over 192 different observing angles. The top, middle, and bottom panels show occurrence rates for fitted luminosity, blackbody temperature, and blackbody radius, respectively. There is a limited spread (roughly half an order of magnitude) in each of these quantities, depending on viewing angle.
