On measuring the Hubble constant with X-ray reverberation mapping of active galactic nuclei
Adam Ingram, Guglielmo Mastroserio, Michiel van der Klis +8
We show that X-ray reverberation mapping can be used to measure the distance to type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs). This is because X-ray photons originally emitted from the `cor…
Modelling correlated variability in accreting black holes: the effect of high density and variable ionisation on reverberation lags
Guglielmo Mastroserio, Adam Ingram, Jingyi Wang +9
We present a new release of the RELTRANS model to fit the complex cross-spectrum of accreting black holes as a function of energy. The model accounts for continuum lags and reverbe…
Disk, Corona, Jet Connection in the Intermediate State of MAXI J1820+070 Revealed by NICER Spectral-Timing Analysis
Jingyi Wang, Guglielmo Mastroserio, Erin Kara +14
We analyze 5 epochs of NICER data of the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 during the bright hard-to-soft state transition in its 2018 outburst with both reflection spectrosco…
StrayCats: A catalog of NuSTAR Stray Light Observations
Brian W. Grefenstette, Renee M. Ludlam, Ellen T. Thompson +10
We present StrayCats: a catalog of NuSTAR stray light observations of X-ray sources. Stray light observations arise for sources 1--4 away from the telescope pointing dire…
Reflection Modeling of the Black Hole Binary 4U~163047: the Disk Density and Returning Radiation
Riley Connors, Javier García, John Tomsick +11
We present the analysis of X-ray observations of the black hole binary 4U~163047 using relativistic reflection spectroscopy. We use archival data from the RXTE, Swift, and NuSTA…
