A Supermassive Black Hole Mass Measurement in NGC 5102 with Schwarzschild Orbit-superposition Modeling
Thomas K. Waters, Kayhan Gultekin, Karl Gebhardt +2
We present a stellar-dynamical mass measurement of the central black hole in the lenticular galaxy NGC~5102 (SA0). Our analysis combines high-quality integral-field spectroscop…
The "Dark-Matter Dominated" Galaxy Segue 1 Modeled with a Black Hole and no Dark Halo
Nathaniel Lujan, Karl Gebhardt, Richard Anantua +11
The dwarf spheroidal galaxy, Segue 1, is thought to have one of the largest ratios of dark matter to stellar mass. Using orbit-based dynamical models, we model Segue 1, including a…
A Stellar Dynamical Mass Measurement of the Supermassive Black Hole in NGC 3258
Thomas K. Waters, Kayhan Gültekin, Karl Gebhardt +2
We present a stellar dynamical mass measurement of the supermassive black hole in the elliptical (E1) galaxy NGC 3258. Our findings are based on integral field unit spectroscopy fr…
Dynamical masses of early-type galaxies: a comparison to lensing results and implications for the stellar IMF and the distribution of dark matter
J. Thomas, R. P. Saglia, R. Bender +6
This work aims to study the distribution of luminous and dark matter in Coma early-type galaxies. Dynamical masses obtained under the assumption that mass follows light do not matc…
Dark matter scaling relations and the assembly epoch of Coma early-type galaxies
J. Thomas, R. P. Saglia, R. Bender +5
Axisymmetric, orbit-based dynamical models are used to derive dark matter scaling relations for Coma early-type galaxies. From faint to bright galaxies halo core-radii and asymptot…
A Search for the Most Massive Galaxies. II. Structure, Environment and Formation
M. Bernardi, J. B. Hyde, A. Fritz +3
We study a sample of 43 early-type galaxies, selected from the SDSS because they appeared to have velocity dispersion > 350 km/s. High-resolution photometry in the SDSS i passband…
