A NuSTAR Study of Quasiperiodic Oscillations from the Ultraluminous X-Ray Sources in M82

A NuSTAR Study of Quasiperiodic Oscillations from the Ultraluminous X-Ray Sources in M82

The study of quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) in X-ray binaries provides valuable insights into the physics of accretion around compact objects. The M82 galaxy hosts multiple ultraluminous X-ray sources, including two prominent ones—X-1 and X-2—where X-1 is suspected to harbor an intermediate-mass...
