Black hole spin in GRS 1915+105. (2006)
Journal Article
Middleton, M., Done, C., Gierliński, M., & Davis, S. (2006). Black hole spin in GRS 1915+105. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 373(1), 1004-1012. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2006.11077.x

Microquasars are galactic black hole binary systems with radio jets which can sometimes be spatially resolved to show superluminal motion. The first and best known of this class of objects is GRS 1915+105, the brightest accreting source in our Galaxy... Read More about Black hole spin in GRS 1915+105..

Truncated disc versus extremely broad iron line in XTE J1650-500 (2006)
Journal Article
Done, C., & Gierliński, M. (2006). Truncated disc versus extremely broad iron line in XTE J1650-500. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 367(2), 659-668. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2005.09968.x

There is growing evidence from both spectral and timing properties that there is a truncated inner accretion disc in low mass accretion rate Galactic black hole systems. The detection of extremely smeared relativistic iron lines in some of these syst... Read More about Truncated disc versus extremely broad iron line in XTE J1650-500.
