Broadband phase-resolved spectroscopy shows inner disk temperature decreasing as apparent radius increases through the rise phase, with coronal electron temperature peaking then dropping sharply after the burst peak, consistent with radiation-pressure instability and seed-photon starvation.
Turbulent electron-ion coronae around accreting black holes self-regulate into a two-temperature state that generates nonthermal ions and X-ray spectra consistent with observations including an MeV tail.
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.
First IXPE polarization measurement of GX 340+0 in normal branch yields PD 1.22±0.25% and PA 38±6°, consistent with origin in blackbody or Comptonized emission, with radio flux lower than in horizontal branch.
Discovery of Spearman correlation 0.8 between energy-dependent time lag and polarization degree in Swift J1727.8-1613, with theoretical arguments for additional mechanisms beyond inverse Comptonization.
Multi-epoch observations of 1A 1246-588 show blackbody temperature rising from 0.28 to 0.39 keV with emitting radius 6.9-13.8 km and Comptonization photon index varying 1.8-2.3, consistent with atoll-state changes from accretion power redistribution.
EP J174942.2-384834 is classified as a very faint X-ray transient black hole candidate based on its hard X-ray spectra, optical/UV brightening correlated with X-rays, and lack of radio emission.
Radio precedes X-ray Compton luminosity by ~3 days in the rising hard state but lags by ~8 days in the decaying hard state of GX 339-4, with inner magnetic field strength estimated from accretion rate and truncation radius accounting for both.
NuSTAR and NICER data on SAX J1808.4-3658 show the accretion disk truncating to ~23 R_g in 2025 with magnetospheric radius exceeding co-rotation radius, indicating a possible transition to the propeller regime while accretion continues as evidenced by a Type-I burst.
