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…
Modeling reflection spectra of super-Eddington X-ray sources
Swarnim Shashank, Askar B. Abdikamalov, Honghui Liu +5
Relativistic reflection is a common feature in the X-ray observations of accreting compact objects. We present reflux, a new X-ray reflection model for spectral analysis of super-E…
X-ray spectra of black hole X-ray binaries with returning radiation
Temurbek Mirzaev, Cosimo Bambi, Askar B. Abdikamalov +4
In the disk-corona model, the X-ray spectrum of a stellar-mass black hole in an X-ray binary is characterized by three components: a thermal component from a thin and cold accretio…
Numerical parameterization of stationary axisymmetric black holes in a theory agnostic framework
Olzhas Mukazhanov, Rittick Roy, Temurbek Mirzaev +1
The pursuit of a comprehensive theory of gravity has led to the exploration of various alternative models, necessitating a model-independent framework. The Konoplya-Rezzolla-Zhiden…
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…
