THE GEOMETRY OF THE X-RAY SOURCE IN NGC 7314 WITH SPECTROSCOPY AND REVERBERATION
收藏资源简介:
NuSTAR s unprecedented energy coverage has been providing many black hole spinmeasurements in AGN. Most of them are at the high end of black hole spin, wherestrong relativistic effects are present. In NGC 7314, the iron line shape fromspectroscopy and reverberation is narrow, suggesting a low black hole spin andpossibly either a truncated disk or an illuminating source that is distant fromthe disk. The current low energy data (< 10 keV) do not constrain the reflectionspectrum to specify this. Here, we propose to observe x for 100 ks with NuSTARand 60 ks with XMM in order to measure both the relativistic broadening andreverberation. The two will allow us to localize the Xray source and test fortruncations. A truncated disk would have implications on accretion theory. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
