contents We present a spectroscopic analysis of XRISM and NuSTAR observations of the black hole X-ray binary GS~1354--64 during its 2026 outburst. A total number of 3.5 million photons are collected by the microcalorimeter Resolve on board XRISM, providing an unprecedented high-resolution view of the iron line profile. A clean broad iron line is found in the data, without significant narrow features. Modeling the broad iron line with relativistic reflection from the inner accretion disk suggests a rapidly spinning black hole (a>0.98) in the system. Measurements of the disk inclination angle from the reflection method are model-dependent. This work demonstrates the power of X-ray microcalorimeters in studying the inner accretion flow and constraining black hole parameters.

We present a spectroscopic analysis of XRISM and NuSTAR observations of the black hole X-ray binary GS~1354--64 during its 2026 outburst. A total number of 3.5 million photons are collected by the microcalorimeter Resolve on board XRISM, providing an unprecedented high-resolution view of the iron line profile. A clean broad iron line is found in the data, without significant narrow features. Modeling the broad iron line with relativistic reflection from the inner accretion disk suggests a rapidly spinning black hole (a>0.98) in the system. Measurements of the disk inclination angle from the reflection method are model-dependent. This work demonstrates the power of X-ray microcalorimeters in studying the inner accretion flow and constraining black hole parameters.
