A Chandra Virgo cluster survey of spiral galaxies-I. Introduction to the survey and a new ULX sample

We present an analysis of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) population in 75 Virgo cluster late-Type galaxies, including all those with a star formation rate 1 M yr-1 and a representative sample of the less star forming ones. This study is based on 110 observations obtained over 20 yr with the Ch...
