X-ray Reflection

X-Ray Reflection is a theoretical framework in high-energy astrophysics that describes the process by which X-rays emitted from an accreting compact object in a binary system are scattered and reprocessed by surrounding accretion disk material, producing characteristic spectral features such as the Compton hump and iron Kα emission line.
