Broad Iron Line as a Relativistic Reflection from Warm Corona in AGN

P. P. Biswas, A. Różańska, F. H. Vincent +2

We present that the broad feature usually observed in X-ray spectra can be explained by a ray-traced emission from a two-slab system containing a dissipative, warm corona on top of…

Observations of a black hole X-ray binary indicate formation of a magnetically arrested disk

Bei You, Xinwu Cao, Zhen Yan +8

Accretion of material onto a black hole drags any magnetic fields present inwards, increasing their strength. Theory predicts that sufficiently strong magnetic fields can halt the…

X-ray quasi-periodic oscillations in Lense-Thirring precession model -- II. variability of relativistic iron K line

Bei You, Piotr T. Życki, Adam Ingram +2

Reprocessing of primary X-ray emission in the accretion disk of black hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs) produces the reflection spectrum, with the characteristic Fe K fluorescence li…

Can reverberation-measured quasars be used for cosmology?

Mary Loli Martínez-Aldama, Bożena Czerny, Damian Kawka +4

Quasars have been proposed as a new class of standard candles analogous to Supernovae, as their large redshift range and high luminosities make them excellent candidates. Reverbera…

X-ray quasi-periodic oscillations in Lense--Thirring precession model - I. variability of relativistic continuum

Bei You, Michal Bursa, Piotr T. Życki

We develop a Monte-Carlo code to compute the Compton scattered X-ray flux arising from a hot inner flow which undergoes Lense-Thirring precession. The hot flow intercepts seed phot…

Energy spectra of X-ray quasi-periodic oscillations in the Lense-Thirring precession model

Piotr T. Zycki, Chris Done, Adam Ingram

We model the energy dependence of a quasi periodic oscillation (QPOs) produced by Lense-Thirring precession of a hot inner flow. We use a fully 3-dimensional Monte-Carlo code to co…
