New publicly available X-ray table models RXToPo and RXagn1 with realistic AGN geometries (torus, polar cone, disk, BLR) generated via RefleX and tested on NGC 424.
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.
A new public relativistic transfer-function model reltrans for X-ray reverberation mapping that fits both spectra and lags to measure black-hole masses.
