Regimes of Super-Eddington Accretion and Outflows in Extragalactic X-ray Binaries

Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) represent stellar-mass binary systems accreting at extreme rates. Their observational diversity has been attributed to numerous different physical interpretations. Here we analyse multiwavelength observations of a select number of ULXs demonstrating a wide range of...
