Testing Mass Determinations of Supermassive Black Holes via Stellar Kinematics (1001.3233v1)
Published 19 Jan 2010 in astro-ph.GA
Abstract: We investigate the accuracy of mass determinations M_BH of supermassive black holes in galaxies using dynamical models of the stellar kinematics. We compare 10 of our M_BH measurements, using integral-field OASIS kinematics, to published values. For a sample of 25 galaxies we confront our new M_BH derived using two modeling methods on the same OASIS data.
