X-ray Time Lag Evaluation of MAXI J1820+070 with a Differential Cross-correlation Analysis
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 MAXI J1820+070 is a transient black hole binary discovered on 2018 March 11. The unprecedented rich statistics brought by the NICER X-ray telescope allow detailed timing analyses up to ∼1 kHz uncompromised by photon shot noise. To estimate the time lags,
