A Monte Carlo model of a Kerr black hole corona shows that photon collisions create a dense electron-positron pair cloud concentrated near the black hole, yielding X-ray temperatures, Compton parameters, and 4-10% polarization consistent with binary black hole observations.
A new public relativistic transfer-function model reltrans for X-ray reverberation mapping that fits both spectra and lags to measure black-hole masses.
Black hole spin constraints for Cyg X-1 from XRISM Resolve data are strongly model-dependent, ranging from a*~0.99 with relxill to a*~0 with relxillCp or reflkerrD.
