The Black Hole Mass and Photometric Components of NGC 4826
Kayhan Gültekin, Karl Gebhardt, John Kormendy +6
We present IR photometry and HST imaging and spectroscopy of Sab galaxy NGC 4826. Schwarzschild dynamical modeling is used to measure its central black hole mass . Photometric d…
Metrics of research impact in astronomy: Predicting later impact from metrics measured 10-15 years after the PhD
John Kormendy
This paper calibrates how metrics derivable from the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System can be used to estimate the future impact of astronomy research careers and thereby to inform…
Tilted outer and inner structures in edge-on galaxies?
Aleksandr V. Mosenkov, Anton A. Smirnov, Olga K. Sil'chenko +3
Tilted and warped discs inside tilted dark matter haloes are predicted from numerical and semi-analytical studies. In this paper, we use deep imaging to demonstrate the likely exis…
Coevolution (Or Not) of Supermassive Black Holes and Host Galaxies: Black Hole Scaling Relations Are Not Biased by Selection Effects
John Kormendy
The oral version of this paper summarized Kormendy & Ho 2013, ARA&A, 51, 511. However, earlier speakers at this Symposium worried that selection effects bias the derivation of blac…
The Halos and Environments of Nearby Galaxies (HERON) I: Imaging, Sample Characteristics, and Envelope Diameters
R. Michael Rich, Aleksandr Mosenkov, Henry Lee-Saunders +16
We use a dedicated 0.7-m telescope to image the halos of 119 galaxies in the Local Volume to mag/arcsec. The sample is primarily from the 2MASS Large Galaxy At…
Structural Analogs of the Milky Way Galaxy: Stellar Populations in the Boxy Bulges of NGC 4565 and NGC 5746
John Kormendy, Ralf Bender
We present NGC 4565 and NGC 5746 as structural analogs of our Milky Way. All three are giant, SBb - SBbc galaxies with two pseudobulges, i. e., a compact, disky, star-forming pseud…
