Globular Cluster Ultraluminous X-ray Sources in the Furthest Early-Type Galaxies
E. Thygesen, Y. Sun, J. Huang +5
Ultraluminous X-ray Sources (ULXs) in globular clusters are low mass X-ray binaries that achieve high X-ray luminosities through a currently uncertain accretion mechanism. Using ar…
Ultraluminous X-ray Sources in Seven Edge-On Spiral Galaxies
Kristen C. Dage, Noah Vowell, Erica Thygesen +8
We investigate a sample of seven edge-on spiral galaxies using Chandra observations. Edge-on spiral galaxies allow us to clearly separate source associated with their star-forming…
Three Ultraluminous X-ray Sources Hosted by Globular Clusters in NGC 1316
Kristen C. Dage, Arunav Kundu, Erica Thygesen +8
We have identified three ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) hosted by globular clusters (GCs) within NGC 1316's stellar system. These discoveries bring the total number of known UL…
X-Ray Spectroscopy of Newly Identified ULXs Associated With M87's Globular Cluster Population
Kristen C. Dage, Stephen E. Zepf, Erica Thygesen +5
We have identified seven ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) which are coincident with globular cluster candidates (GCs) associated with M87. ULXs in the old GC environment represen…
