Gravitational Waves and GRBs from Tidal Disruption of Stars in the   Center of Galaxies
  Recent measurements of the Chandra satellite have shown that a supermassive black hole of $M = 2.6 \times 10^{6} M_{\odot}$ is located in the Galactic Center; it seems probable that, from other observations, this fact is common in the majority of galaxies. On the other hand, GRB explosions are typical phenomenon linked to the galactic dynamics. In the present paper we discuss the possibility that GRBs are tidal disruption of stars by supermassive black holes located in the center of galaxies. This conjecture can be tested by a gravitational wave detector of the class of AURIGA.
