The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): Probing Accretion onto Stellar Mass Black Holes

Riley Connors, John Tomsick, Paul Draghis +20

Accretion is a universal astrophysical process that plays a key role in cosmic history, from the epoch of reionization to galaxy and stellar formation and evolution. Accreting stel…

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…
