abstract
We present a detailed analysis of the spectral properties of the Seyfert 1 galaxy 1H0419-577, based on the archival XMM-Newton, NuSTAR and simultaneous Swift observations taken between 2002-2015. All the observations show a broad emission line feature at the iron band. We demonstrate that the broad band spectral variability at different levels can be explained by the combination of light-bending effects in the vicinity of the central black hole plus a thin warm absorber. We obtain a black hole spin of a > 0.98 by fitting the multi-epoch spectra with the relativistic disc reflection model. 1H0419-577 is accreting at 40% of its Eddington limit and its X-ray band shows the hardest powerlaw continuum in the highest flux state, which was previously more commonly seen in AGNs with a low accretion rate (e.g. $L_{\rm X} /L_{\rm Edd} < 10^{-2}$). The NuSTAR observation shows a cool coronal temperature of $kT=30^{+22}_{-7}$keV in the high flux state.

HALO II: Constraining Hubble constant $H_{0}$ through continuum delay fitting of Fairall 9
Using simultaneous modeling of continuum lag-spectrum and broadband SED of Fairall 9 with the H0RIZON-AGN model, the authors obtain H0 = 72.4_{-3.7}^{+3.4} km s^{-1} Mpc^{-1}.

Relativistic reflection spectra of super-spinning black holes
Fitting Suzaku reflection spectra with a super-spinning spacetime model finds apparent deviations from Kerr in Ark 120 and Swift J0501.9, but the 3-sigma claim is not consistently supported for Swift.
