Formation of Supermassive Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2010
Evidence shows that massive black holes reside in most local galaxies. Studies have also established a number of relations between the MBH mass and properties of the host galaxy such as bulge mass and velocity dispersion.

Close supermassive binary black holes [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2009
It has been proposed that when the peaks of the broad emission lines in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are significantly blueshifted or redshifted from the systemic velocity of the host galaxy, this could be a consequence of orbital motion of a ...

Dynamics around supermassive black holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The dynamics of galactic nuclei reflects the presence of supermassive black holes (SBHs) in many ways. Single SBHs act as sinks, destroying a mass in stars equal to their own mass in roughly one relaxation time and forcing nuclei to expand.

Supermassive black holes in BCGs [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
AbstractWe observed a sample of three Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs), Abell 1836-BCG, Abell 2052-BCG, and Abell 3565-BCG, with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) and the Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on board the Space Telescope. For each target galaxy we obtained high-resolution spectroscopy of the Hα and [N II] λ6583 emission lines at three slit ...

Supermassive black holes and their environments [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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.

Investigation of some galactic and extragalactic gravitational phenomena [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian 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 ...
