For an accretion disk around a black hole, the strong relativistic effects affect every aspect of the radiation from the disk, including the spectrum, the light-curve, and the image. If the disk is in high inclination angle (nearly edge-on), the image will be greatly distorted; the farther side of the disk will appear to bend toward the observer, photons from the other side of the disk can reach the observer (if they are not blocked by the disk) to form a ghost image. This work differs mainly from previous work by taking into account the temperature distribution of a standard thin disk model and investigating the expected images from different viewing angles and in different energy bands. The edge-blocking effect is also considered. Direct images of black hole systems may be obtained with future X-ray missions like MAXIM pathfinder.
