DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Deatrick Foster (South African Astronomical Observat
 ory)\nFor many Galactic black hole binaries\, there exists kinematic data 
 that constrain the black hole masses to be within the stellar-mass regime.
  However\, due to their extragalactic distances\, ultraluminous X-ray sour
 ces (ULXs) have no such available dynamical information. Hence\, in order 
 to constrain the system parameters\, we must use indirect methods. We pres
 ent an analysis of recent observations which suggest that\, rather than be
 ing powered by intermediate-mass black holes\, ULXs may represent an extre
 me form of "conventional" stellar-mass black holes.\n\nhttps://events.saip
