Three alternative geometries considered in the work: panel (a) the outflowing corona with the underlying cold disk producing seed photons corresponding to model (A), panel (b) is for the outflowing hot flow with the internal synchrotron seed photons corresponding to model (B), and panel (c) is for the outflowing hot flow with the seed photons from the outer truncated disk (model C).
