Figure 1: DSS images centred on the putative host galaxies ( left). The small black squares correspond to a one square arcmin centred on the ULX candidates analyzed in this paper. These regions are expanded on figures to the right. The arrows identify the optical counterpart of the X-ray sources. Small circles are centred on the nominal X-ray position and have radius of 5 and 1 arcsec for ROSAT and Chandra observations respectively. North is up and east to the left. |
