The MBHBM Project -- II. Molecular Gas Kinematics in the Lenticular Galaxy NGC 3593 Reveal a Supermassive Black Hole

Dieu D. Nguyen, Martin Bureau, Sabine Thater +15

As part of the Measuring Black Holes in Below Milky Way-mass (M) galaxies (MBHBM) Project, we present a dynamical measurement of the supermassive black hole (SMBH)…

Central kinematics of the Galactic globular cluster M80

Fabian Göttgens, Sebastian Kamann, Holger Baumgardt +7

We use spectra observed with the integral-field spectrograph MUSE to reveal the central kinematics of the Galactic globular cluster Messier 80 (M80, NGC 6093). Using observations o…

The MUSE-Faint survey. II. The dark matter-density profile of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Eridanus 2

Sebastiaan L. Zoutendijk, Jarle Brinchmann, Nicolas F. Bouché +5

Aims. We use stellar line-of-sight velocities to constrain the dark matter-density profile of Eridanus 2, an ultra-faint dwarf galaxy (, $M_* \approx 9 \times…

Stellar populations and physical properties of starbursts in the Antennae galaxy from self-consistent modelling of MUSE spectra

M. L. P. Gunawardhana, J. Brinchmann, P. M. Weilbacher +6

We have modelled the stellar and nebular continua and emission-line intensity ratios of massive stellar populations in the Antennae galaxy using high resolution and self-consistent…

Improved Dynamical Constraints on the Masses of the Central Black Holes in Nearby Low-mass Early-type Galactic Nuclei And the First Black Hole Determination for NGC 205

Dieu D. Nguyen, Anil C. Seth, Nadine Neumayer +17

We improve the dynamical black hole (BH) mass estimates in three nearby low-mass early-type galaxies--NGC 205, NGC 5102, and NGC 5206. We use new \hst/STIS spectroscopy to fit the…

Cluster kinematics and stellar rotation in NGC 419 with MUSE and adaptive optics

Sebastian Kamann, Nathan J. Bastian, Tim-Oliver Husser +9

We present adaptive optics (AO) assisted integral-field spectroscopy of the intermediate-age star cluster NGC 419 in the Small Magellanic Cloud. By investigating the cluster dynami…

MUSE crowded field 3D spectroscopy in NGC300 I. First results from central fields

M. M. Roth, C. Sandin, S. Kamann +9

Aims. As a new approach to the study of resolved stellar populations in nearby galaxies, our goal is to demonstrate in NGC300 that integral field spectroscopy with high spatial res…

A 3.5-million Solar Masses Black Hole in the Centre of the Ultracompact Dwarf Galaxy Fornax UCD3

Anton V. Afanasiev, Igor V. Chilingarian, Steffen Mieske +16

The origin of ultracompact dwarfs (UCDs), a class of compact stellar systems discovered two decades ago, still remains a matter of debate. Recent discoveries of central supermassiv…

Upper limits on the presence of central massive black holes in two ultra-compact dwarf galaxies in Centaurus A

Karina T. Voggel, Anil C. Seth, Nadine Neumayer +10

The recent discovery of massive black holes (BHs) in the centers of high-mass ultra compact dwarf galaxies (UCDs) suggests that at least some are the stripped nuclear star clusters…

Climbing to the top of the galactic mass ladder: evidence for frequent prolate-like rotation among the most massive galaxies

Davor Krajnovic, Eric Emsellem, Mark den Brok +4

We present the stellar velocity maps of 25 massive early type galaxies located in dense environments observed with MUSE. Galaxies are selected to be brighter than M_K=-25.7 magnitu…

Improved dynamical constraints on the mass of the central black hole in NGC 404

Dieu D. Nguyen

We determine the dynamical black hole mass in NGC404 including modeling of the nuclear stellar populations. We combine \hst/STIS spectroscopy with WFC3 images to create a local col…

The MUSE Hubble Ultra Deep Field Survey: V. Spatially resolved stellar kinematics of galaxies at redshift

Adrien Guerou, Davor Krajnovic, Benoit Epinat +11

We present spatially resolved stellar kinematic maps, for the first time, for a sample of 17 intermediate redshift galaxies (0.2 < z < 0.8). We used deep MUSE/VLT integral field sp…

Detection of Enhanced Central Mass-to-Light Ratios in Low-Mass Early-Type Galaxies: Evidence for Black Holes?

Renuka Pechetti, Anil Seth, Michele Cappellari +4

We present dynamical measurements of the central mass-to-light ratio () of a sample of 27 low-mass early-type ATLAS galaxies. We consider all ATLAS galaxies with…
