A disrupted bulgeless satellite galaxy as counterpart of the ultraluminous X-ray source ESO 243-49 HLX-1
The point-like X-ray source HLX-1, close to the S0 galaxy ESO 243-49, is one the strongest intermediate-mass black hole candidates, but the nature of its counterpart is still puzzling. By means of N-body/smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations, we investigate the hypothesis that the HLX-1 counte...
