The Mass Of Black Holes in the Nuclei Of Spirals
Paolo Salucci, Charu Ratnam, Pierluigi Monaco +1
We use rotation curve kinematics of 1000 spiral galaxies to investigate if these galaxies could host BH (Black Hole) remnants that once powered the QSO phenomenon. The rotation cur…
Dynamics in the cosmological mass function (or, why does the Press & Schechter work?)
Pierluigi Monaco
The Press & Schechter ``numerical recipe'' is briefly reviewed, together with the recently proposed dynamical mass function theory, in which the mass function is constructed by usi…
Mass function of dormant black holes and the evolution of the Active Galactic Nuclei
Paolo Salucci, Ewa Szuszkiewicz, Pierluigi Monaco +1
We derive the mass function of the relic black holes and compared with that of the Massive Dark Objects in galaxies. Under the assumption that accretion onto massive BH's powers th…
Dormant black holes tell a story about the evolution of active galactic nuclei
Paolo Salucci, Ewa Szuszkiewicz, Pierluigi Monaco +1
In our recent paper (Salucci et al. 1998) we have investigated the mass distribution function of massive dark objects in galaxies, exploiting the available optical and radio observ…
Galaxy Distances in the Nearby Universe: Corrections For Peculiar Motions
C. Marinoni, P. Monaco, G. Giuricin +1
By correcting the redshift--dependent distances for peculiar motions through a number of peculiar velocity field models, we recover the true distances of a wide, all-sky sample of…
