Radiatively Inefficient Accretion in Nearby Galaxies
Luis C. Ho
We use new central stellar velocity dispersions and nuclear X-ray and Halpha luminosities for the Palomar survey of nearby galaxies to investigate the distribution of nuclear bolom…
Origin and Dynamical Support of Ionized Gas in Galaxy Bulges
Luis C. Ho
We combine ionized gas ([N II] 6583) and stellar central velocity dispersions for a sample of 345 galaxies, with and without active galactic nuclei (AGNs), to study the dynamical s…
Black Holes in Pseudobulges and Spheroidals: A Change in the Black Hole-Bulge Scaling Relations at Low Mass
Jenny E. Greene, Luis C. Ho, Aaron J. Barth
We investigate the relationship between black hole mass and host galaxy properties for active galaxies with the lowest black hole masses currently known in galaxy nuclei. Hubble Sp…
The Origin of the Intrinsic Scatter in the Relation Between Black Hole Mass and Bulge Luminosity for Nearby Active Galaxies
Minjin Kim, Luis C. Ho, Chien Y. Peng +4
We investigate the origin of the intrinsic scatter in the correlation between black hole mass (MBH) and bulge luminosity [L(bulge)] in a sample of 45 massive, local (z < 0.35) type…
Properties of Active Galaxies Deduced from H I Observations
Luis C. Ho, Jeremy Darling, Jenny E. Greene
We completed a new survey for H I emission for a large, well-defined sample of 154 nearby (z < 0.1) galaxies with type 1 AGNs. We make use of the extensive database presented in a…
The CO Tully-Fisher Relation and Implications for the Host Galaxies of High-Redshift Quasars
Luis C. Ho
The integrated line width derived from CO spectroscopy provides a powerful tool to study the internal kinematics of extragalactic objects, including quasars at high redshift, provi…
