Accretion-disk Reflection in the Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 3783 as Viewed by Chandra Grating Spectroscopy

In active galactic nuclei, X-ray illumination of the accretion disk around a supermassive black hole (SMBH) results in the production of the K α fluorescent line of iron, which provides insights into accretion physics and SMBH spins. In this work, we studied X-ray reflection from the accretion disk...
