The identification of an optical counterpart to the super-Eddington X-ray source NGC 5204 X-1 (2001)
Journal Article
Roberts, T., Goad, M., Ward, M., Warwick, R., O'Brien, P., Lira, P., & Hands, A. (2001). The identification of an optical counterpart to the super-Eddington X-ray source NGC 5204 X-1. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 325(2), L7-L11. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-8711.2001.04659.x

We report the identification of a possible optical counterpart to the super-Eddington X-ray source NGC 5204 X-1. New Chandra data show that the X-ray source is point-like, with a luminosity of 5.2×10^39 erg/s (0.5-8 keV). It displays medium- and long...

Ultraluminous x-ray sources in external galaxies (2001)
Journal Article
King, A., Davies, M., Ward, M., Fabbiano, G., & Elvis, M. (2001). Ultraluminous x-ray sources in external galaxies. Astrophysical Journal Letters, 552(2), L109-L112. https://doi.org/10.1086/320343

We investigate models for the class of ultraluminous nonnuclear X-ray sources (i.e., ultraluminous compact X-ray sources [ULXs]) seen in a number of galaxies and probably associated with star-forming regions. Models in which the X-ray emission is ass... Read More about Ultraluminous x-ray sources in external galaxies.
