Modeling uncertainties in X-ray reflection spectroscopy measurements I: Impact of higher order disk images
Menglei Zhou, Dimitry Ayzenberg, Cosimo Bambi +1
There are many simplifications in current relativistic reflection models and this introduces systematic uncertainties in the measurement of the properties of the source. In this pa…
Relativistic reflection spectra of super-spinning black holes
Biao Zhou, Ashutosh Tripathi, Askar B. Abdikamalov +4
We construct a relativistic reflection model in a non-Kerr spacetime in which, depending on the value of the deformation parameter of the metric, there are black hole solutions wit…
XSPEC model for testing the Kerr black hole hypothesis using the continuum-fitting method
Menglei Zhou, Askar B. Abdikamalov, Dimitry Ayzenberg +3
We present NKBB, an XSPEC model for the thermal spectrum of thin accretion disks in parametric black hole spacetimes. We employ the Novikov-Thorne model for the description of the…
