Early rise-time τ _rise (top) and late-time slope n _∞ (bottom) for ZAMS (left) and TAMS (right) stars for different M _⋆, a, and β. The “+” and “-” symbols indicate the results from the disruptions of stars on prograde and retrograde orbits, respectively. The results for the GR and NR simulations are indicated with “•” and “▪” symbols, respectively. For partial disruption the analytically predicted slope is n _∞ ≈ − 9/4 and for total disruption it is n _∞ ≈ − 5/3, which are represented with a dashed and a dashed–dotted line, respectively.
