AGN Jet ­ Red Giant interaction

Schematic illustration of the scenario. When a star crosses the AGN jet, the outer layers of its atmosphere are ablated due to the high jet ram pressure; During the interaction with the jet the cloud gets expanded and involved to the jet motion.

Energy Budget of the Cloud
The radiation of blazars is to be strongly Doppler boosted. The apparent luminosity L and the intrinsic luminosities are connected through the well known relation factor:
4 L = Lsc c =

one can estimate the size of the blob: rc 5 в 1014 MBH,8 L

Another impor tant estimate can be obtained for the maximum apparent luminosity of the blob. It is achieved when the blob eclipses the whole jet, i.e. rc . In this case one obtains: L

Time variability
The shape of the function Fe can be treated as a time profile of the par ticle acceleration rate providing us with the characteristic timescale. In the extreme case, when the blob eclipses the entire jet (i.e. 2 2 /rc 1), this scale depends only on the jet Lorentz factor j and power Lj , as well as on the mass of the cloud Mc : t 60

Conclusions
If a RG is even slightly tidally disrupted by the SMBH, enough stellar material will be blown by the jet. The process can render suitable conditions for energy dissipation and proton acceleration, which could explain the detected day-scale TeV flares from M87 via proton-proton collisions. We show that the RG to the Lorentz factors synchrotron radiation. TeV flares on top of a gamma-ray variability
