Scientific paper

Our Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds contain ˜18 well studied supersoft x-ray sources (SSSs). None of these sources has ever been observed in a harder state. Two SSSs in M31 have, however, been observed in quasisoft and/or hard states. We have used Chandra, XMM-Newton, and Swift to document these changes. We present the results and discuss possible models for the sources.
