Supermassive Black Hole Spin and Reverberation
arXiv:1903.05469
Abstract
X-ray reverberation mapping has emerged as a powerful probe of microparsec scales around AGN, and with high sensitivity detectors, its full potential in echo-mapping the otherwise inaccessible disk-corona at the black hole horizon scale will be revealed.
