Detection of the Optical Counterpart of the Transient ULX NGC 300 ULX-1: A Nascent Black Hole-neutron Star Binary?

The endpoints of massive star evolution are poorly known, especially those in interacting binary systems containing compact objects, such as neutron stars or black holes (BHs). Such systems are bright in X-rays, and the most luminous among them are called ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs). In this...
