Recoiling Supermassive Black Holes: a search in the Nearby Universe

D. Lena, A. Robinson, A. Marconi +4

The coalescence of a binary black hole can be accompanied by a large gravitational recoil due to anisotropic emission of gravitational waves. A recoiling supermassive black hole (S…

A STIS Atlas of CaII Triplet Absorption Line Kinematics in Galactic Nuclei

D. Batcheldor, D. J. Axon, M. Valluri +2

The relations observed between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies suggest a fundamental link in the processes that cause these two objects to evolve. A more comprehen…

A Displaced Supermassive Black Hole in M87

D. Batcheldor, A. Robinson, D. J. Axon +2

Isophotal analysis of M87, using data from the Advanced Camera for Surveys, reveals a projected displacement of 6.8 +/- 0.8 pc (~ 0.1 arcsec) between the nuclear point source (pres…

The HST/ACS Coma Cluster Survey. II. Data Description and Source Catalogs

Derek Hammer, Gijs Verdoes Kleijn, Carlos Hoyos +45

The Coma cluster was the target of a HST-ACS Treasury program designed for deep imaging in the F475W and F814W passbands. Although our survey was interrupted by the ACS instrument…

Measuring the spin of the primary black hole in OJ287

M. J. Valtonen, S. Mikkola, D. Merritt +7

The compact binary system in OJ287 is modelled to contain a spinning primary black hole with an accretion disk and a non-spinning secondary black hole. Using Post Newtonian (PN) ac…

The HST/ACS Coma Cluster Survey: V - Compact Stellar Systems in the Coma Cluster

J. Price, S. Phillipps, A. Huxor +14

The HST ACS Coma Cluster Treasury Survey is a deep two passband imaging survey of the nearest very rich cluster of galaxies, covering a range of galaxy density environments. The im…
