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…
Modeling reflection spectra of super-Eddington X-ray sources
Swarnim Shashank, Askar B. Abdikamalov, Honghui Liu +5
Relativistic reflection is a common feature in the X-ray observations of accreting compact objects. We present reflux, a new X-ray reflection model for spectral analysis of super-E…
X-ray spectra of black hole X-ray binaries with returning radiation
Temurbek Mirzaev, Cosimo Bambi, Askar B. Abdikamalov +4
In the disk-corona model, the X-ray spectrum of a stellar-mass black hole in an X-ray binary is characterized by three components: a thermal component from a thin and cold accretio…
The 2018 outburst of MAXI J1820+070 as seen by Insight-HXMT
Ningyue Fan, Songyu Li, Rui Zhan +8
We present an analysis of the whole 2018 outburst of the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 with Insight-HXMT data. We focus our study on the temporal evolution of the paramete…
Impact of reflection Comptonization on X-ray reflection spectroscopy: the case of EXO 1846-031
Songcheng Li, Honghui Liu, Cosimo Bambi +2
Within the disk-corona model, it is natural to expect that a fraction of reflection photons from the disk are Compton scattered by the hot corona (reflection Comptonization), even…
Variable ionized disk wind in MAXI J1803-298 revealed by NICER
Zuobin Zhang, Cosimo Bambi, Honghui Liu +7
We present the results from the NICER observation data of MAXI J1803-298 across the entire 2021 outburst. In the intermediate and soft state, we detect significant absorption lines…
