Testing the Kerr nature of black hole candidates using iron line reverberation mapping in the Cardoso-Pani-Rico framework

The iron Kα line commonly observed in the x-ray spectrum of black hole candidates is produced by x-ray fluorescence of the inner accretion disk. This line can potentially be quite a powerful tool to probe the spacetime geometry around these objects and test the Kerr black hole hypothesis. In a previ...
