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…
Unveiling the contribution of Pop III stars in primeval galaxies at redshift
Shafqat Riaz, Tilman Hartwig, Muhammad A. Latif
Detection of the first stars has remained elusive so-far but their presence may soon be unveiled by upcoming JWST observations. Previous studies have not investigated the entire po…
Testing relativistic reflection models with GRMHD simulations of accreting black holes
Swarnim Shashank, Shafqat Riaz, Askar B. Abdikamalov +1
X-ray reflection spectroscopy is currently one of the leading techniques for studying the inner part of accretion disks around black holes, measuring black hole spins, and even tes…
