TDEs with LSST

Abstract

We investigate the prospects of observing Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) with different LSST cadences proposed with the White Paper call. We study their detection rates, the quality of their light curves and discuss which cadences sample TDEs better before or during the peak of the light curve. We suggest some constraints on the observing cadences that we believe will increase the number of reliable classifications of TDEs, in particular a WFD survey with 2 visits in different filters every night or at least every second night, observing the extra-galactic sky.
