Estimation of mass of MAXI J1659-152 during its very first outburst with TCAF fits

Abstract

We determine mass of MAXI J1659-152 using two different methods, viz: constant Normalization parameter point of view while fitting with TCAF, MBH-2red variation from TCAF fits. We find a mass range of 4.06-7.93~M with a most probable value at 6 2 M.
