Tidal Disruption Events and stellar-mass black holes in OGLE and Gaia surveys

Tidal Disruption Events (TDE) allow to probe the super massive black holes (SMBH) in the cores of galaxies and could be a source of black hole mass growth. We present the search for candidates for TDEs conducted within OGLE and Gaia surveys. Our preliminary results indicate that TDEs can occur in cores of galaxies exhibiting different levels of activity, from quiescent, through weak-AGNs to highly active QSOs. We also present how Gaia can help study the mass distribution of Milky Way single black holes via microlensing.
