Modeling X-ray reflection spectra from returning radiation: application to 4U 163047
Kostas Kourmpetis, Shafqat Riaz, Honghui Liu +6
Returning radiation is thought to play a key role in disk illumination of black hole X-ray binaries in the high-soft state, yet it has not been fully incorporated into XSPEC reflec…
X-ray reflection spectroscopy with improved calculations of the emission angle
Yimin Huang, Honghui Liu, Temurbek Mirzaev +10
The reflection spectrum produced by a cold medium illuminated by X-ray photons is not isotropic and its shape depends on the emission angle. In the reflection spectrum of an accret…
Exploring black hole shadows in axisymmetric spacetimes with coordinate-independent methods and neural networks
Temurbek Mirzaev, Bobomurat Ahmedov, Cosimo Bambi
The study of black hole shadows provides a powerful tool for testing the predictions of general relativity and exploring deviations from the standard Kerr metric in the strong grav…
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…
