The ngEHT’s Role in Measuring Supermassive Black Hole Spins [PDF]
Galaxies, 2022 While supermassive black-hole masses have been cataloged across cosmic time, only a few dozen of them have robust spin measurements. By extending and improving the existing Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) array, the next-generation Event Horizon Telescope (

Supermassive Black Hole Growth in Hierarchically Merging Nuclear Star Clusters [PDF]
The Astrophysical JournalSupermassive black holes are prevalent at the centers of massive galaxies, and their masses scale with galaxy properties, increasing evidence suggesting that these trends continue to low stellar masses.

Mass Functions of Supermassive Black Holes across Cosmic Time [PDF]
Advances in Astronomy, 2012 The black hole mass function of supermassive black holes describes the evolution of the distribution of black hole mass. It is one of the primary empirical tools available for mapping the growth of supermassive black holes and for constraining ...

Evidence for supermassive black hole binaries [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of AustraliaAbstract We review the state of the evidence for the existence and observational appearance of supermassive black hole binaries. Such objects are expected from standard hierarchical galaxy evolution to form after two galaxies, each containing a supermassive black hole, have merged, in the centre of the merger remnant.

Supermassive black holes : the local supermassive black hole mass function [PDF]
, 2012 Over recent years there has been an increase of the number of secure supermassive black hole (SMBH) detections. These SMBH measurements have lead astronomers to establish well defined empirical relationships between the SMBH mass and some of the properties of the host galaxy.

Investigation of some galactic and extragalactic gravitational phenomena [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2012 Here we present a short overview of the most important results of our investigations of the following galactic and extragalactic gravitational phenomena: supermassive black holes in centers of galaxies and quasars, supermassive black hole ...

Supermassive black holes and their environments [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2008 We make use of the first high--resolution hydrodynamic simulations of structure formation which self-consistently follows the build up of supermassive black holes introduced in Di Matteo et al. (2007) to investigate the relation between black holes (BH), host halo and large--scale environment.

An Upper Limit on the Charge of the Black Hole Sgr A* from EHT Observations
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) recently released an image of the supermassive black hole Sgr A* showing an angular shadow diameter d _sh = 48.7 ± 7 μ as and Schwarzschild shadow deviation $\delta =-{0.08}_{-0.09}^{+0.09}\,(\mathrm{VLTI})$ , $-{0.04}_{-
