论文摘要
从黑洞周围发出的X射线辐射的性能分析可以是测试强场式中总体相对性的强大工具。本章通过黑洞X射线数据回顾了重力测试的最新测试。到目前为止，大多数努力都致力于检验Kerr假设 - 即，Kerr解决方案描述了天体物理黑洞周围的时空 - 目前可以对与Kerr几何形状的可能偏差最严格的约束。截至目前，所有X射线分析均与一般相对性的预测一致。
The analysis of the properties of the X-ray radiation emitted from geometrically thin accretion disks around black holes can be a powerful tool to test General Relativity in the strong field regime. This chapter reviews the state-of-the-art of gravity tests with black hole X-ray data. So far, most efforts have been devoted to test the Kerr hypothesis - namely that the spacetime around astrophysical black holes is described by the Kerr solution - and X-ray data can currently provide among the most stringent constraints on possible deviations from the Kerr geometry. As of now, all X-ray analyses are consistent with the predictions of General Relativity.
