A candidate proton cyclotron feature in the ultraluminous X-ray source NGC 4656 ULX-1
Ultraluminous X-ray sources represent extreme super-Eddington accretion regimes, and a subset is now known to host highly magnetized neutron stars. However, direct observational probes of their surface magnetic fields remain scarce. In this Letter, we report the detection of a narrow X-ray absorption feature at 3.29 ± 0.02 keV in the XMM─Newton
