In this work we show that Bardeen-Petterson accretion disks can exhibit unique, detectable features in relativistically broadened emission line profiles. Some of the unique characteristics include inverted line profiles with sharper red horns and softer blue horns and even profiles with more than 2 horns from a single rest-frame line. We demonstrat...
Images of highly idealized Bardeen-Petterson accretion disks around Kerr black holes and their generated energy spectra line profiles are created via computer simulations in this work. The line profiles are examined in the relation to the original disk parameters to demonstrate that Bardeen-Petterson disks can be the source of the spectra we observ...
