A physical model for the broadband energy spectrum of X-ray illuminated accretion discs: fitting the spectral energy distribution of NGC 5548
M. Dovciak, I. E. Papadakis, E. S. Kammoun +1
We develop a new physical model for the broadband spectral energy distribution (SED) of X-ray illuminated accretion discs, that takes into account the mutual interaction of the acc…
The Spin and Orientation of the Black Hole in XTE J1908094
Paul A. Draghis, Jon M. Miller, Abderahmen Zoghbi +3
NuSTAR observed the black hole candidate XTE J1908094 during its 2013 and 2019 outbursts. We use relativistic reflection to measure the spin of the black hole through 19 differe…
The Inner Accretion Flow in the Resurgent Seyfert-1.2 AGN Mrk 817
J. M. Miller, Z. Zoghbi, M. T. Reynolds +10
Accretion disks and coronae around massive black holes have been studied extensively, and they are known to be coupled. Over a period of 30 years, however, the X-ray (coronal) flux…
Modeling the UV/optical continuum time-lags in AGN
E. S. Kammoun, I. E. Papadakis, M. Dovciak
Thermal reverberation in accretion discs of active galactic nuclei is thought to be the reason of the continuum UV/optical time lags seen in these sources. Recently, we studied the…
