Iron line spectroscopy of black holes in asymptotically safe gravity
Yuexin Zhang, Menglei Zhou, Cosimo Bambi
We study the iron line shape expected in the reflection spectrum of accretion disks around black holes in asymptotically safe gravity. We compare the results of our simulations wit…
Testing conformal gravity with the supermassive black hole in 1H0707-495
Menglei Zhou, Zheng Cao, Askar Abdikamalov +4
Recently, two of us have found a family of singularity-free rotating black hole solutions in Einstein's conformal gravity. These spacetimes are characterized by three parameters: t…
Distinguishing black holes and naked singularities with iron line spectroscopy
Honghui Liu, Menglei Zhou, Cosimo Bambi
It is commonly thought that the final product of gravitational collapse is a black hole. Nevertheless, theoretical studies have not yet provided a final answer to the question whet…
