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…
Towards more accurate synthetic reflection spectra: improving the calculations of returning radiation
Temurbek Mirzaev, Shafqat Riaz, Askar B. Abdikamalov +6
We present a new model to calculate reflection spectra of thin accretion disks in Kerr spacetimes. Our model includes the effect of returning radiation, which is the radiation that…
