Discovery of a Mid-infrared Echo from the TDE Candidate in the Nucleus of ULIRG F01004โˆ’2237

We present the mid-infrared (MIR) light curves (LCs) of a tidal disruption event (TDE) candidate in the center of a nearby ultraluminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) F01004-2237 using archival {\it WISE} and {\it NEOWISE} data from 2010 to 2016. At the peak of the optical flare, F01004-2237 was IR quiescent. About โ€ฆ
