Astrophysical imaging with the Darwin IR interferometer
H. J. A. Rottgering, L. d'Arcio, C. Eiroa +2
The proposed infrared space interferometry mission Darwin has two main aims: (i) to detect and characterize exo-planets similar to the Earth, and (ii) to carry out astrophysical im…
Measuring Black Hole Masses Using Ionized Gas Kinematics
Aaron J. Barth, Marc Sarzi, Luis C. Ho +5
We describe techniques for measuring the central masses of galaxies using emission-line kinematics observed with the Hubble Space Telescope. For accurate results, it is necessary t…
Supermassive Black Holes from the SUNNS survey
Marc Sarzi, Hans-Walter Rix, Joseph C. Shields +5
We report three new accurate mass measurements for the supermassive black holes hosted by the early-type disk galaxies NGC2787, NGC4459 and NGC4596. The targets were selected from…
FIRES at the VLT: Measuring the Rest-Frame V-Band Luminosity of Galaxies from z~3 to Now
Gregory Rudnick, Hans-Walter Rix, Marijn Franx
We present early results from the Faint InfraRed Extragalactic Survey (FIRES) at the VLT, the main goal of which is to study galaxy evolution in a deep, K-band selected sample. Wit…
Variability in LINERs
J. C. Shields, H. -W. Rix, D. H. McIntosh +6
A small number of LINERs have been seen to display variable H-alpha emission with a very broad, double-peaked profile. Recent observations with the Hubble Space Telescope indicate…
