Testing Mass Determinations of Supermassive Black Holes via Stellar Kinematics

Michele Cappellari, Richard M. McDermid, R. Bacon +10

We investigate the accuracy of mass determinations M_BH of supermassive black holes in galaxies using dynamical models of the stellar kinematics. We compare 10 of our M_BH measurem…
