Not just winds: why models find binary black hole formation is metallicity dependent, while binary neutron star formation is not
L. A. C. van Son, S. K. Roy, I. Mandel +6
Both detailed and rapid population studies alike predict that binary black hole (BHBH) formation is orders of magnitude more efficient at low metallicity than high metallicity, whi…

Multi-wavelength spectroscopic analysis of the ULX Holmberg II X-1 and its nebula suggests the presence of a heavy black hole accreting from a B-type donor
S. Reyero Serantes, L. Oskinova, W. -R. Hamann +11
Ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are high-mass X-ray binaries with an X-ray luminosity above erg s. These ULXs can be powered by black holes that are more massi…

A soft and transient ultraluminous X-ray source with 6-h modulation in the NGC 300 galaxy
A. Sacchi, P. Esposito, D. de Martino +13
We investigate the nature of CXOU J005440.5-374320 (J0054), a peculiar bright ( erg/s) and soft X-ray transient in the spiral galaxy NGC 300 with a 6-hour per…
