Estimating Masses of Supermassive Black Holes in Active Galactic Nuclei from the Halpha Emission Line
E. Dalla BontÃ, B. M. Peterson, C. J. Grier +19
The goal of this project is to construct an estimator for the masses of supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) based on the broad Halpha emission line. We make u…
