An Alternative Approach To Measuring Reverberation Lags in Active Galactic Nuclei
Ying Zu, C. S. Kochanek, Bradley. M. Peterson
Motivated by recent progress in the statistical modeling of quasar variability, we develop a new approach to measuring emission-line reverberation lags to estimate the size of broa…

On the black hole mass - velocity dispersion relation for type-1 and type-2 AGN
K. M. Dasyra, B. M. Peterson, L. J. Tacconi +7
We present results from infrared spectroscopic projects that aim to test the relation between the mass of a black hole, M_BH, and the velocity dispersion of the stars in its host-g…

Toward Precision Measurement of Central Black Hole Masses
Bradley M. Peterson
We review briefly direct and indirect methods of measuring the masses of black holes in galactic nuclei, and then focus attention on supermassive black holes in active nuclei, with…
