论文摘要
爱因斯坦的一般相对论理论是在100年前提出的,并在弱重力场中成功通过了大量的观察性测试。相反,强大的野外政权在很大程度上尚未探索。天体物理黑洞是测试强场状态重力的理想实验室。在这里,我将简要回顾一下我小组使用Nustar,RXTE,Sezaku和XMM-Newton的X射线数据在黑洞周围测试强力场的当前努力。
Einstein's theory of General Relativity was proposed over 100 years ago and has successfully passed a large number of observational tests in weak gravitational fields. On the contrary, the strong field regime is still largely unexplored. Astrophysical black holes are ideal laboratories for testing gravity in the strong field regime. Here I will briefly review the current efforts of my group to test the strong gravitational field around black holes using X-ray data from NuSTAR, RXTE, Suzaku, and XMM-Newton.
