25 Summary Only three of twelve analyzed sources shown flat parts in their power spectra. The flat parts of these ULXs are associated with QPO, however SS433 power spectrum haven t QPO. Other sources show about the same variability regardless of spectral type. The lower QPO/break frequency, the variability stronger. Shifting of frequencies may be caused by system inclination or difference of mass accretion rate. 25
