Ultraluminous X-Ray Sources: Evidence for Very Efficient Formation of Population III Stars Contributing to the Cosmic Near-Infrared Background Excess?

Accumulating evidence indicates that some ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), but the formation process of IMBHs is unknown. One possibility is that they were formed as remnants of Population III (Pop. III) stars, but it has been thought that the probability...
