An Extreme Black Hole in the Recurrent X-Ray Transient XTE J2012+381
The black hole (BH) candidate XTE J2012+381 underwent an outburst at the end of 2022. We analyzed 105 NICER observations and two NuSTAR observations of the source during the outburst. The NuSTAR observations of the M ∼ 10 M _⊙ BH indicate clear signs of relativistic disk reflection, which we modeled...
