Relativistic Thermal Emission from Accretion Disks in Kerr-MOG Spacetimes
Cheng Liu, Xu-fan Hu, Yosuke Mizuno +1
In Scalar-Tensor-Vector Gravity (STVG, also known as MOG), a massive vector field generates a repulsive fifth force that endows rotating black holes with a gravitational char…

Dynamics and Radiative Signatures of Accretion Flows onto a Kerr-like Wormhole
Jing-ze Xia, Hong-xuan Jiang, Cheng Liu +1
Wormholes are a hypothetical object that connects disparate points in spacetime. It is a theoretically well-motivated black hole alternative and offers a potential observationally…

Signature of iron line profile from a Kerr-like wormhole
Cheng Liu, Hoongwah Siew, Hong-Xuan Jiang +2
Broad, skewed iron K emission lines in the X-ray spectra of accreting black holes encode key information about the spacetime geometry of the innermost disk. While the Kerr metri…
