eRASSU J043115.8-711730 :the first pulsating symbiotic super-soft X-ray source in the Magellanic Bridge
Tathagata Saha, Chandreyee Maitra, Philip Charles +9
The Magellanic Bridge stellar population is a relic of the tidal interaction between the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. A comprehensive view of the evolution of the Bridge stel…
About the accuracy of the relxill/relxill_nk models in view of the next generation of X-ray missions
Honghui Liu, Askar B. Abdikamalov, Temurbek Mirzaev +4
X-ray reflection spectroscopy is a powerful tool to study the strong gravity region of black holes. The next generation of astrophysical X-ray missions promises to provide unpreced…
Proof of principle X-ray reflection mass measurement of the black hole in H1743-322
Edward Nathan, Adam Ingram, James F. Steiner +9
The black hole X-ray binary H1743-322 lies in a region of the Galaxy with high extinction, and therefore it has not been possible to make a dynamical mass measurement. In this pape…
Measuring Black Hole Spins through X-ray Reflection Spectroscopy and the Relativistic Precession Model: the case of XTE J1859+226
Gitika Mall, Honghui Liu, Cosimo Bambi +2
The development of techniques to measure accurately black hole spins is crucial to study the physics and astrophysics of these objects. X-ray reflection spectroscopy is currently t…
Vertical wind structure in an X-ray binary revealed by a precessing accretion disk
P. Kosec, E. Kara, A. C. Fabian +11
The accretion of matter onto black holes and neutron stars often leads to the launching of outflows that can greatly affect the environments surrounding the compact object. In supe…
High-density reflection spectroscopy of black hole X-ray binaries in the hard state
Honghui Liu, Jiachen Jiang, Zuobin Zhang +9
We present a high-density relativistic reflection analysis of 21 spectra of six black hole X-ray binaries in the hard state with data from \textit{NuSTAR} and \textit{Swift}. We fi…
