abstract
Relativistic jets can form from at least some tidal disruption events (TDEs) of (sub-)stellar objects around supermassive black holes. We detect the millimeter (MM) emission of IGR J12580+0134 --- the nearest TDE known in the galaxy NGC 4845 at the distance of only 17 Mpc, based on Planck all-sky survey data. The data show significant flux jumps after the event, followed by substantial declines, in all six high frequency Planck bands from 100 GHz to 857 GHz. We further show that the evolution of the MM flux densities are well consistent with our model prediction from an off-axis jet, as was initially suggested from radio and X-ray observations. This detection represents the second TDE with MM detections; the other is Sw J1644+57, an on-axis jetted TDE at redshift of 0.35. Using the on- and off-axis jet models developed for these two TDEs as templates, we estimate the detection potential of similar events with the Large Millimeter Telescope (LMT) and the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Assuming an exposure of one hour, we find that the LMT (ALMA) can detect jetted TDEs up to redshifts $z\sim1$ (2), for a typical disrupted star mass of $\sim1$ M$_\odot$. The detection rates of on- and off-axis TDEs can be as high as $\sim0.6$ (13) and 10 (220) per year, respectively, for the LMT (ALMA). We briefly discuss how such observations, together with follow-up radio monitoring, may lead to major advances in understanding the jetted TDEs themselves and the ambient environment of the CNM.

ATLAS22kjn (AT 2022fpx): A Coronal Line Emitter with an Early Light Curve Bump and Mid-Infrared Dust Echo
The tidal disruption event ATLAS22kjn shows a resolved 9-day pre-peak bump, coronal lines that imply a stable ~1e6 K ionising source, and a dust echo whose covering fraction is much higher than typical TDEs.

AT2021yky: A Fast-Rising Optical Transient with Evolving Broad Hydrogen Emission Consistent with an Ambiguous Nuclear Transient
AT2021yky is a fast-rising, cool nuclear flare with only broad H-alpha emission, best classified as an ambiguous nuclear transient rather than a typical TDE, AGN flare, supernova, or LFBOT.
