Insight-HXMT, NuSTAR and INTEGRAL Data Show Disk Truncation in the Hard State of the Black-Hole X-Ray Binary MAXI J1820+070

We study X-ray and soft gamma-ray spectra from the hard state of the accreting black-hole binary MAXI J1820+070. We perform analysis of joint spectra from HXMT, NuSTAR and INTEGRAL. We find an overall agreement between the spectra from all three satellites. Satisfactory fits to the data require substantial spectral complexity, with our models including two Comptonization regions and their associated disk reflection, a disk blackbody and a narrow Fe K$α$ line. Our fits confirm the presence of the truncation of the reflecting optically-thick disk at least at $>$10 gravitational radii. However, we find that the HXMT data alone cannot significantly constrain the disk inner radii.
