Testing black hole metrics with binary black hole inspirals
Zhe Zhao, Swarnim Shashank, Debtroy Das +1
Gravitational wave astronomy has opened an unprecedented window onto tests of gravity and fundamental physics in the strong-field regime. In this study, we examine a series of well…
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…
Measuring black hole spins with x-ray reflection spectroscopy: A GRMHD outlook
Swarnim Shashank, Askar B. Abdikamalov, Honghui Liu +4
X-ray reflection spectroscopy has evolved as one of the leading methods to measure black hole spins. However, the question is whether its measurements are subjected to systematic b…
