... Cyg X-1: Can Black Holes Form in the Dark? ... Credit: I. F. Mirabel and I. Rodrigues ( IAFE , SAp/CEA ) Explanation: The formation of a black hole from the collapsing core of a massive star is thought to be heralded by a spectacular supernova explosion. ... If not a supernova, could the formation of the Cyg X-1 black hole have produced a dark gamma-ray burst in the Milky Way ? ...

About the gamma-ray burst GRB 060218/SN 2006aj (z=0.033): the most recent observational results and about inevitable changes in "standard"/popular scenarios describing the phenomenon of the gamma-ray burst and explosion of a (massive) supernova. ... The BTA spectra of GRB 060218/SN 2006aj, as well as the BTA spectra of GRB 030329/SN 2003dh (z = 0.1685), turn out again to be among the very first spectra of two nearest GRB/SN-bursts. ...

... 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. ...
