Unveiling recurrent jets of the ULX Holmberg II X-1: evidence for a massive stellar-mass black hole?

We report on the discovery of an apparent triple radio structure hidden inside the radio bubble of the ultraluminous X-ray source Holmberg II X-1. The morphology is consistent with a collimated jet structure, which is observed to emit optically thin synchrotron radiation. The central component has a...
