A Stellar-mass Black Hole in the Ultra-luminous X-ray Source M82 X-1?

Takashi Okajima, Ken Ebisawa, Toshihiro Kawaguchi

We have analyzed the archival XMM-Newton data of the bright Ultra-Luminous X-ray Source (ULX) M82 X-1 with an 105 ksec exposure when the source was in the steady state. Thanks to t…
