A lens model from Gaia DR3 and HST data combined with a Bayesian test on Chandra observations constrains the X-ray emission origin in lensed quasar J0659 to a 0.020 × 0.010 arcsec ellipse offset 0.014 arcsec from the optical source at 1σ.
Fe Kα lines from accreting black holes are produced mostly outside 10 gravitational radii due to radial ionization gradients, allowing broad profiles without high spin.
A new public relativistic transfer-function model reltrans for X-ray reverberation mapping that fits both spectra and lags to measure black-hole masses.
Compiled slab-geometry Seyfert coronae form a narrow constant-y≈0.77 locus, favouring dominant local coronal dissipation and reduced disc-corona feedback.
General-relativistic ray-tracing shows that non-flat accretion disk geometries systematically bias iron Kα-derived black hole spin, coronal height, and inclination estimates when fit with flat-disk models.
A bias-controlled quasar sample of ~2000 objects demonstrates that the X-ray-to-UV luminosity relation remains constant from redshift 0.7 to 5.
