A Supermassive Black Hole in the S0 Galaxy Ngc 3245
The S0 galaxy NGC 3245 contains a circumnuclear disk of ionized gas and dust with a radius of 1. 1 (or 110 pc), making it an ideal target for dynamical studies with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST ). We have obtained spectra of the nuclear disk with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph, using an 0. 2-wide slit at five parallel positions. Measurements of the Hα and [N II] emission lines are ...
متن کاملSpectroscopic Evidence for a Supermassive Black Hole in Ngc 4486b
The stellar kinematics of the low-luminosity elliptical galaxy NGC 4486B have been measured in seeing σ∗ = 0. 22 with the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) and Subarcsecond Imaging Spectrograph. Lauer and collaborators have shown that NGC 4486B is similar to M31 in having a double nucleus. Here we show that it also resembles M31 in its kinematics. Like M31, NGC 4486B rotates fairly rapidly ...
متن کاملSupermassive black hole binary mergers
Massive merging black holes will be the primary sources of powerful gravitational waves at low frequency, and will permit to test General Relativity if we identify candidate galaxies that are close to a binary black hole merger. In this paper we show that for a typical range of mass ratios of the two black holes the final stage of the merger is preceded by a rapid precession and a subsequent sp...
متن کاملSupermassive binary black hole mergers
When galaxies collide, dynamical friction drives their central supermassive black holes close enought to each other such that gravitational radiation becomes the leading dissipative effect. Gravitational radiation takes away energy, momentum and angular momentum from the compact binary, such that the black holes finally merge. In the process, the spin of the dominant black hole is reoriented. O...
متن کاملActive galaxies. A fast and long-lived outflow from the supermassive black hole in NGC 5548.
Supermassive black holes in the nuclei of active galaxies expel large amounts of matter through powerful winds of ionized gas. The archetypal active galaxy NGC 5548 has been studied for decades, and high-resolution x-ray and ultraviolet (UV) observations have previously shown a persistent ionized outflow. An observing campaign in 2013 with six space observatories shows the nucleus to be obscure...
