A hadronic model with two free parameters shows proton-photon interactions can supply enough pairs for observed coronal optical depths above a critical Eddington ratio, with neutrino luminosity scaling as L_X^2/L_Edd below and L_X above that threshold.

Neutrino and pair creation in reconnection-powered coronae of accreting black holes
A hadronic model with two free parameters shows proton-photon interactions can supply enough pairs for observed coronal optical depths above a critical Eddington ratio, with neutrino luminosity scaling as L_X^2/L_Edd below and L_X above that threshold.
