Following the discovery of 3:2 resonance quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in M82X-1 (Pasham et al. 2014), we have constructed power density spectra (PDS) of all 15 (sufficiently long) {it XMM-Newton} observations of the ultraluminous X-ray source NGC1313X-1 ($L_{X}$ $approx$ 2$times$10$^{40}$ erg/sec). We detect a strong QPO at a frequency of 0.29$pm$0.01 Hz in data obtained on 2012 December 16. Subsequent searching of all the remaining observations for a 3:2/2:3 frequency pair revealed a feature at 0.46$pm$0.02 Hz on 2003 Dec 13 (frequency ratio of 1.59$pm$0.09). The global significance of the 0.29 Hz feature considering all frequencies between 0.1 and 4 Hz is $>$ 3.5 $sigma$. The significance of the 0.46$pm$0.02 Hz QPO is $>$ 3.5$sigma$ for a search at 2/3 and 3/2 of 0.29 Hz. We also detect lower frequency QPOs (32.9$pm$2.6 and 79.7$pm$1.2 mHz). All the QPOs are super-imposed on a continuum consisting of flat-topped, band-limited noise, breaking into a power-law at a frequency of 16$pm$3 mHz and white noise at $gtrsim$ 0.1 Hz. NGC1313X-1s PDS is analogous to stellar-mass black holes (StMBHs) PDS in the so-called steep power-law state, but with the respective frequencies (both QPOs and break frequencies) scaled down by a factor of $sim$ 1000. Using the inverse mass-to-high-frequency QPO scaling of StMBHs, we estimate NGC1313X-1s black hole mass to be 5000$pm$1300 $M_{odot}$, consistent with an inference from the scaling of the break frequency. However, the implied Eddington ratio, L$_{Edd}$ $>$ 0.03$pm$0.01, is significantly lower compared to StMBHs in the steep power-law state (L$_{Edd}$ $gtrsim$ 0.2).
The black hole mass and spin estimates assuming various specific models of the 3:2 high frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (HF QPOs) have been carried out in Torok et al. (2005, 2011). Here we briefly summarize some current points. Spectral fittin
Estimations of black hole spin in the three Galactic microquasars GRS 1915+105, GRO J1655-40, and XTE J1550-564 have been carried out based on spectral and timing X-ray measurements and various theoretical concepts. Among others, a non-linear resonan
We report the discovery of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPO) at ~11 mHz in two RXTE observations and one Chandra observation of the black hole candidate H1743-322. The QPO is observed only at the beginning of the 2010 and 2011 outbursts at similar ha
We propose a model to explain a puzzling 3:2 frequency ratio of high frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (HFQPOs) in black hole (BH) X-ray binaries, GRO J1655-40, GRS 1915+105 and XTE J1550-564. In our model a non-axisymmetric magnetic coupling (MC
We investigate frequency correlations of low frequency (LF, <80 Hz) and kHz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) using the complete RXTE data sets on 6 accreting millisecond X-ray pulsars (AMXPs) and compare them to those of non-pulsating neutron star
