The primary aim of this thesis was to increase the number of dynamically confirmed black hole X-ray novae (BHXNs). As a result of this research, the optical counterpart of an GRO J1655-40 (XN Sco94) has been discovered (Bailyn et al. 1995), and the mass functions of GRO J0422+32, H 1705-250 (XN Oph77), and GRO J1655-40 have been measured (Orosz & Bailyn 1995; Remillard et al. 1996; Bailyn et al. 1995). In addition, the measurements of fundamental system properties of several BXHNs have been refined. Finally, some of the overall properties of the BHXNs as a class are discussed.
