Splitting the lentils: Clues to galaxy/black hole coevolution from the discovery of offset relations for non-dusty versus dusty (wet-merger-built) lenticular galaxies in the $M_{\mathrm{bh}}$-$M_{\ast ,\mathrm{spheroid}}$ diagram

Abstract

This work advances the (galaxy morphology)-dependent (black hole mass, $M_{\mathrm{bh}}$)-(spheroid/galaxy stellar mass, $M_{\ast }$) scaling relations by introducing `dust bins' for lenticular (S0) galaxies. Doing so has led to the discovery of $M_{\mathrm{bh}}$-$M_{\ast ,\mathrm{sph}}$ and $M_{\mathrm{bh}}$-$M_{\ast ,\mathrm{gal}}$ relations for dusty S0 galaxies - built by major wet mergers and comprising half the S0 sample - offset from the distribution of dust-poor S0 galaxies. The situation is reminiscent of how major dry mergers of massive S0 galaxies have created an offset population of ellicular and elliptical galaxies. For a given $M_{\mathrm{bh}}$, the dust-rich S0 galaxies have 3 to 4 times higher $M_{\ast ,\mathrm{sph}}$ than the dust-poor S0 galaxies, and the steep distributions of both populations in the $M_{\mathrm{bh}}$-$M_{\ast ,\mathrm{sph}}$ diagram bracket the $M_{\mathrm{bh}}\propto M_{\ast ,\mathrm{sph}}^{2.27+/-0.48}$ relation defined by the spiral galaxies, themselves renovated through minor mergers. The new relations offer refined means to estimate $M_{\mathrm{bh}}$ in other galaxies and should aid with: (i) constructing (galaxy morphology)-dependent black hole mass functions; (ii) estimating the masses of black holes associated with tidal disruption events; (iii) better quantifying evolution in the scaling relations via improved comparisons with high-$z$ data by alleviating the pickle of apples versus oranges; (iv) mergers and long-wavelength gravitational wave science; (v) simulations of galaxy/black hole coevolution and semi-analytic works involving galaxy speciation; plus (vi) facilitating improved extrapolations into the intermediate-mass black hole landscape. The role of the galaxy's environment is also discussed, and many potential projects that can further explore the morphological divisions are mentioned.
