High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! XTE J1650-500 is a stellar-mass black hole candidate and 2000-2001 transient binary X-ray source located in the constellation Ara. In 2008, it was claimed that this black hole had a mass of 3.8±0.5 solar masses, which would have been the smallest found for any black hole. However, this claim was subsequently retracted; the more likely mass is 5-10 solar masses. The binary period of the black hole and its companion is 0.32 days. A stellar black hole is a black hole formed by the gravitational collapse of a massive star (more massive than about 20 solar masses) at the end of its lifetime. The process is observed as a supernova explosion or as a gamma ray burst.
