... Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are located in external galaxies, their X-ray luminosities (10 39 - 10 41 erg/s) are thousand times greater than those of brightest black holes in the Galaxy. ULXs may be supercritical accretion disks around black holes of stellar masses (~10 Solar masses) like that in SS433, or they may be a hypothetical intermediate-mass black holes (hundreds - thousands Solar masses) with standard accretion disks. ... 2) The ULX progenitors were ejected from the star clusters. ...

The most massive black holes in the nearby Universe seem to largely be hosted by massive central cluster galaxies. The ultra-massive black hole in NGC 1277, reported by van den Bosch et al. based on a stellar kinematic measurement, is an extreme outlier in this respect. NGC 1277 is not a central cluster galaxy, but a lenticular galaxy in the Perseus Cluster, at a distance of about 3.8 from the central cluster galaxy. ...
