abstract

Recent high-resolution X-ray imaging studies have discovered possible candidates of intermediate-mass black holes with masses of $M_\bullet \sim 10^{2-4} \MO$ in circumnuclear regions of many (disk) galaxies. It is known that a large number of massive stars are formed in a circumnuclear giant H {\sc ii} region. Therefore, we propose that continual merger of compact remnants left from these massive stars is responsible for the formation of such an intermediate-mass black hole within a timescale of $\sim 10^9$ years. A necessary condition is that several hundreds of massive stars are formed in a compact region with a radius of a few pc.

Feasibility calculations show SKA-Mid can detect polarized emission from a Holmberg II X-1-like ULX jet within 10 hours up to ~10 Mpc, while the bubble requires ~100 hours.
