Diagnosing the kinematics of the tori in active galactic nuclei with the velocity-resolved reverberation mapping of the narrow iron K line

Yuan Liu, Xiaobo Li

The properties of the dusty tori in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) have been investigated in detail, mainly focusing on the geometry and components; however, the kinematics of the t…

The clumpy torus around type II AGN as revealed by X-ray fluorescent lines

Jiren Liu, Yuan Liu, Xiaobo Li +3

The reflection spectrum of the torus around AGN is characterized by X-ray fluorescent lines, which are most prominent for type II AGN. A clumpy torus allows photons reflected from…

A direct comparison of X-ray spectral models for tori in active galactic nuclei

Yuan Liu, Xiaobo Li

Several X-ray spectral models for tori in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are available to constrain the properties of tori; however, the accuracy of these models has not been verifi…

An X-ray spectral model for clumpy tori in active galactic nuclei

Yuan Liu, Xiaobo Li

We construct an X-ray spectral model for the clumpy torus in an active galactic nucleus (AGN) using Geant4, which includes the physical processes of the photoelectric effect, Compt…

To understand the X-ray spectrum of anomalous X-ray pulsars and soft gamma-ray repeaters

Yan-Jun Guo, Shi Dai, Zhao-Sheng Li +3

Hard X-rays above 10 keV are detected from several anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) and soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs), and different models have been proposed to explain the physic…
