Contents

We discuss the formation and evolution of systems comprised of a low-mass (\(M_\star \lesssim 4 \, \rm M_\odot\)) main sequence star, orbiting a \(10^5-10^7 \, \rm M_\odot\) supermassive black hole with an orbital period of order \(\sim\)hours, and a mild eccentricity (\(e\approx0.1-0.2\)), episodically shedding mass at each pericenter passage. We...
