The host galaxy - AGN connection at low and high redshift

Renato Falomo

The properties of radio loud active galaxies (radiogalaxies, BL Lac objects and radio loud quasar) at low and high redshift are briefly reviewed and compared. The recently derived…

The black hole mass of low redshift radiogalaxies

D. Bettoni, R. Falomo, G. Fasano +1

We make use of two empirical relations between the black hole mass and the global properties (bulge luminosity and stellar velocity dispersion) of nearby elliptical galaxies, to in…

Mass of BL Lacs from the Velocity Dispersion of the Host Galaxy

A. Treves, N. Carangelo, R. Falomo +1

We report on new measurements of the stellar velocity dispersion of 4 BL Lac objects for which optical spectroscopy was gathered at the ESO 3.6m using EFOSC2. Assuming the M(BH)--(…

Black hole masses of BL Lac objects

J. K. Kotilainen, R. Falomo, A. Treves

The correlation between black hole mass M(BH) and the central stellar velocity dispersion sigma in nearby elliptical galaxies affords a novel way to determine M(BH) in active galax…

Broad-band continuum and line emission of the gamma-ray blazar PKS 0537-441

E. Pian, R. Falomo, R. C. Hartman +10

PKS 0537-441, a bright gamma-ray emitting blazar, was observed at radio, optical, UV and X-ray frequencies during various EGRET pointings, often quasi-simultaneously. In 1995 the o…

The black hole mass of BL Lac objects from the stellar velocity dispersion of the host galaxy

R. Falomo, J. K. Kotilainen, A. Treves

The correlation between black hole mass M(BH) and stellar velocity dispersion sigma in nearby elliptical galaxies affords a novel way to determine M(BH) in active galaxies. We repo…
