This is an incomplete list of black holes (and stars considered probable candidates) organized by size (including black hole stars of undetermined mass); some items in this list are galaxies or star clusters that are believed to be organized around a black hole.
Supermassive black holes and candidates
- OJ 287 (this BL Lac object has the largest known supermassive black hole at its center)
- 4C +37.11 (this radio galaxy is believed to have binary supermassive black holes)
- 3C 75
- HE0450-2958
- Hypercompact stellar system (is organized around a supermassive black hole)
- Q0906+6930 (a Blazar organized around a supermassive black hole)
- Sagittarius A*
Intermediate-mass black holes and candidates
- GCIRS 13E
- M-15 NGC 7078
- M-33 Triangulum NGC 598
- M-110 NGC 205
- M-31 G1 NGC 224
- M82 X-1
- NGC 253
- NGC 1313 X-1
- NGC 1313 X-2
Stellar black holes and candidates
- 4U 1543-475/IL Lupi
- A0620-00/V616 Mon
- Cyg X-1 (this black hole is currently thought to be the closest to Earth, at about 6,000 light years)
- Cygnus X-3
- GRO J1655-40/V1033 Sco
- GRS 1124-683/GU Mus
- GRS 1915+105/V1487 Aql
- GS 2000+25/QZ Vul
- GX 339-4/V821 Ara
- M33 X-7 (most massive stellar-mass black hole known) [1]
- MACHO-96-BLG-5
- MACHO-98-BLG-6
- MACHO-99-BLG-22
- SN 1997D (in NGC 1536)
- SS 433
- V404 Cyg
- XTE J1118+480/KV UMa
- XTE J1550-564/V381 Nor
- XTE J1650-500 (this is the smallest known black hole yet discovered)
- XTE J1819-254/V4641 Sgr
Black holes of undetermined mass
Micro black holes
As of July 2009, the existence of micro black holes remains solely the subject of theoretical models; research in this area with particle accelerators (such as the Large Hadron Collider) is on-going, although the artificial production of micro black holes with particle accelerators has caused some to voice concerns for safety.
