Notes. The parameter Rph0 and l is the radius normalization and power-law exponent to compute the luminosity-dependent radius of the photosphere in MOSFIT; Tviscous is the viscous time of the gas accretion onto the black hole; b is a proxy for β, β = Rt/Rp, where Rt refers to the tidal disruption radius and Rp refers to the pericenter radius. Full stellar disruption corresponds to b = 1; Mh(M⊙) is the black hole mass; ε is the efficiency parameter that converts the input fallback rate of material to luminosity; starmass is the mass of the disrupted star; σ2 represents the additional variance in the Bayesian analysis to make . The errors are only for the fitting statistical uncertainties, and do not include the systematic uncertainties from MOSFIT (Mockler et al. 2019).
