Some 20% of our nuclear spectra have infrared emission lines, mostly Paschen lines, Brackett γ , and [Fe ii]. We consider the influence of radio power and black hole mass in relation to the spectra. Access to the spectra is provided here as a community resource. Key words: galaxies: elliptical and lenticular, cD – galaxies: nuclei – infrared: general – radio continuum: galaxies ∼ 1.

SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLES AND THEIR HOST SPHEROIDS. III. THE MBH–nsph CORRELATION Giulia A. D. Savorgnan Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing, Swinburne University of Technology, Hawthorn, Victoria 3122, Australia; [email protected] Received 2015 December 6; accepted 2016 March 6; published 2016 April 13 ABSTRACT The Sérsic R1 n model is the best approximation known to date for describing the light distribution of stellar spheroidal and disk components, with the Sérsic index n providing a direct measure of the central radial concentration of stars. The Sérsic index of a galaxy’s spheroidal component, nsph, has been shown to tightly correlate with the mass of the central supermassive black hole, MBH.TheMnBH– sph correlation is also expected from other two well known scaling relations involving the spheroid luminosity, Lsph:theLsph–n sph and the MLBH– sph. Obtaining an accurate estimate of the spheroid Sérsic index requires a careful modeling of a galaxy’s light distribution and some studies have failed to recover a statistically significant MnBH– sph correlation. With the aim of re-investigating the MnBH– sph and other black hole mass scaling relations, we performed a detailed (i.e., bulge, disks, bars, spiral arms, rings, halo, nucleus, etc.) decomposition of 66 galaxies, with directly measured black hole masses, that had been imaged at 3.6 μm with Spitzer.Inthispaper,the third of this series, we present an analysis of the Lsph–n sph and MnBH– sph diagrams. -

Received 2015 July 16; in original form 2015 May 27 ABSTRACT It has been argued that a substantial fraction of massive stars may end their lives without http://mnras.oxfordjournals.org/ an optically bright supernova (SN), but rather collapse to form a black hole. Such an event would not be detected by current SN surveys, which are focused on finding bright transients. Kochanek et al. proposed a novel survey for such events, using repeated observations of nearby galaxies to search for the disappearance of a massive star. We present such a survey, using the first systematic analysis of archival Hubble Space Telescope images of nearby galaxies with the aim of identifying evolved massive stars which have disappeared, without an accompanying optically bright SN. We consider a sample of 15 galaxies, with at least three epochs of Hubble Space Telescope imaging taken between 1994 and 2013. Within this data, we find one candidate at CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research on September 15, 2016 which is consistent with a 25–30 M yellow supergiant which has undergone an optically dark core-collapse.

ABSTRACT We present new central stellar velocity dispersion measurements for 428 galaxies in the Palomar spectroscopic survey of bright, northern galaxies. Of these, 142 have no previously published measurements, most being rela- −1 tively late-type systems with low velocity dispersions (∼<100kms ). We provide updates to a number of literature dispersions with large uncertainties. Our measurements are based on a direct pixel-fitting technique that can ac- commodate composite stellar populations by calculating an optimal linear combination of input stellar templates. The original Palomar survey data were taken under conditions that are not ideally suited for deriving stellar veloc- ity dispersions for galaxies with a wide range of Hubble types. We describe an effective strategy to circumvent this complication and demonstrate that we can still obtain reliable velocity dispersions for this sample of well-studied nearby galaxies.
