Galaxy Cluster Mass Reconstruction Project: I. Methods and first results on galaxy-based techniques
L. Old, R. A. Skibba, F. R. Pearce +18
This paper is the first in a series in which we perform an extensive comparison of various galaxy-based cluster mass estimation techniques that utilise the positions, velocities an…
CALIFA: a diameter-selected sample for an integral field spectroscopy galaxy survey
C. J. Walcher, L. Wisotzki, S. Bekeraité +48
We describe and discuss the selection procedure and statistical properties of the galaxy sample used by the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area Survey (CALIFA), a public legacy s…
Selection bias in the M_BH-sigma and M_BH-L correlations and its consequences
M. Bernardi, R. K. Sheth, E. Tundo +1
It is common to estimate black hole abundances by using a measured correlation between black hole mass and another more easily measured observable such as the velocity dispersion o…
The Swift X-ray Telescope Cluster Survey II. X-ray spectral analysis
P. Tozzi, A. Moretti, E. Tundo +7
(Abridged) We present a spectral analysis of a new, flux-limited sample of 72 X-ray selected clusters of galaxies identified with the X-ray Telescope (XRT) on board the Swift satel…
On the inconsistency between the black hole mass function inferred from M_bh-sigma and M_bh-L correlation
E. Tundo, M. Bernardi, J. B. Hyde +2
Black hole masses are tightly correlated with the stellar velocity dispersions of the bulges which surround them, and slightly less-well correlated with the bulge luminosity. It is…
