Evidence of a Supermassive Black Hole in the Galaxy NGC 1023 from the Nuclear Stellar Dynamics
G. A. Bower, R. F. Green, R. Bender +13
We analyze the nuclear stellar dynamics of the SB0 galaxy NGC 1023, utilizing observational data both from the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph aboard the Hubble Space Telescop…
A Theoretical Model for the Relation for Supermassive Black Holes in Galaxies
Fred C. Adams, David S. Graff, Douglas O. Richstone
We construct a model for the formation of black holes within galactic bulges. The initial state is a slowly rotating isothermal sphere, characterized by effective transport speed $…
Black Hole Mass Estimates from Reverberation Mapping and from Spatially Resolved Kinematics
Karl Gebhardt, John Kormendy, Luis Ho +12
Black hole (BH) masses that have been measured by reverberation mapping in active galaxies fall significantly below the correlation between bulge luminosity and BH mass determined…
A Relationship Between Nuclear Black Hole Mass and Galaxy Velocity Dispersion
Karl Gebhardt, Ralf Bender, Gary Bower +12
We describe a correlation between the mass M_BH of a galaxy's central black hole and the luminosity-weighted line-of-sight velocity dispersion sigma_e within the half-light radius.…
