Fast optical transients from stellar-mass black hole tidal disruption events in young star clusters

TL;DR: In this article, a suite of over 3000 independent $N$-body simulations that cover a range in cluster mass, metallicity, and half-mass radii was computed. And the authors found that stellar-mass black hole tidal disruption events (TDEs) occur at an overall rate of up to roughly $300,\rm{Gpc}^{-3}\, \rm{yr}-1}$ in young stellar clusters in the local universe.
