Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring Black Hole Spin using X-ray Reflection Spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the current status of X-ray reflection (a.k.a. broad iron line) based black hole spin measurements and lay out the detailed methodology focusing on "best practices" that have been found necessary to obtain robust results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron Fluorescence from within the Innermost Stable Orbit of Black Hole Accretion Disks
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that fluorescence by material inside the radius of marginal stability, which is in the process of spiraling toward the event horizon, can have an observable influence on the iron line profile and equivalent width.
Journal ArticleDOI
Broad iron L line and X-ray reverberation in 1H0707-495
Abderahmen Zoghbi,A. C. Fabian,Phil Uttley,Giovanni Miniutti,Luigi C. Gallo,Christopher S. Reynolds,Jon M. Miller,Gabriele Ponti +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis of a long XMM-Newton observation of the narrow-line type 1 Seyfert galaxy 1H0707-495 is presented, including spectral fitting, spectral variability and timing studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
The matter content of the jet in M87: evidence for an electron—positronjet
TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine the geometry and kinematics of the M87 jet with the theory of synchrotron self-absorbed radio cores in order to investigate the physical properties of the jet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stellar-mass black hole spin constraints from disk reflection and continuum modeling
Jon M. Miller,Christopher S. Reynolds,Andrew C. Fabian,Giovanni Miniutti,Giovanni Miniutti,Luigi C. Gallo +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results of fits made to archival X-ray spectra of stellar-mass black holes and black hole candidates, selected for strong disk reflection features, were fit with reflection models and disk continuum emission models.
