Studying the Reflection Spectra of the New Black Hole X-ray Binary Candidate MAXI J1631-479 Observed by NuSTAR: A Variable Broad Iron Line Profile

Yanjun Xu, Fiona A. Harrison, John A. Tomsick +5

We present results from the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) observations of the new black hole X-ray binary candidate MAXI J1631-479 at two epochs during its 2018-20…

Evidence for Disk Truncation at Low Accretion States of the Black Hole Binary MAXI J1820+070 Observed by NuSTAR and XMM-Newton

Yanjun Xu, Fiona A. Harrison, John A. Tomsick +3

We present results from NuSTAR and XMM-Newton observations of the new black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 at low accretion rates (below 1% of the Eddington luminosity). We detec…

Spectral evolution of the ultraluminous X-ray sources M82 X-1 and X-2

Murray Brightman, Dominic J. Walton, Yanjun Xu +5

M82 hosts two well-known ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs). X-1, an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) candidate, and X-2, an ultraluminous X-ray pulsar (ULXP). Here we present a…
