Using integral-field spectroscopic data of an archival sample of 51 local AGNs, we estimate the fraction of non-stellar light by comparing the nuclear equivalent width of the stellar 2.3 µm CO absorption feature with the intrinsic value for each galaxy. We compare this fraction to that derived from a spectral decomposition of the integrated light in the central arcsecond and find them to be consistent with each other. Using our estimates of the near-IR AGN light, we find a strong correlation with presumably isotropic AGN tracers. We show that a significant offset exists between type 1 and type 2 sources in the sense that type 1 MIR X sources are 7 (10) times brighter in the near-IR at log LAGN = 42.5 (log LAGN = 42.5). -

Extending the M (Bh)-Sigma Diagram with Dense Nuclear Star Clusters
Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 000, 000–000 (0000) Printed 11 November 2018 (MN LATEX style file v2.2) Extending the Mbh–σ diagram with dense nuclear star clusters Alister W. Graham1⋆, 1 Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing, Swinburne University of Technology, Hawthorn, Victoria 3122, Australia. Submitted 08 Aug, 2011 ABSTRACT Four new nuclear star cluster masses, Mnc, plus seven upper limits, are provided for galaxies with previously determined black hole masses, Mbh. Together with a sample of 64 galaxies with direct Mbh measurements, 13 of which additionally now have Mnc measurements rather than only upper limits, plus an additional 29 dwarf galaxies with available Mnc measurements and velocity dispersions σ, an (Mbh + Mnc)–σ diagram is constructed. Given that major dry galaxy merger events preserve the Mbh/L ratio, and given that L ∝ σ5 for luminous galaxies, it is first noted that the observation 5 Mbh ∝ σ is consistent with expectations. For the fainter elliptical galaxies it is known 2 that L ∝ σ , and assuming a constant Mnc/L ratio (Ferrarese et al.), the expectation 2 that Mnc ∝ σ is in broad agreement with our new observational result that Mnc ∝ σ1.57±0.24. This exponent is however in contrast to the value of ∼4 which has been reported previously and interpreted in terms of a regulating feedback mechanism from stellar winds. Finally, it is predicted that host galaxies fainter than MB ∼−20.5 mag (i.e. those 5 not formed in dry merger events) which follow the relation Mbh ∝ σ , and are thus not ‘pseudobulges’, should not have a constant Mbh/Mhost ratio but instead have ∝ 5/2 Mbh Lhost. -
SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLES and THEIR HOST SPHEROIDS III. the MBH − Nsph CORRELATION

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. -

Classification of Bulge Types and Statistical Properties of Pseudo Bulges Hua Gao (高f),1, 2 Luis C. Ho,2, 1 Aaron J.

We apply the Kormendy relation to classify classical and pseudo bulges and characterize bulge dichotomy with respect to bulge structural properties and physical properties of host galaxies. We confirm previous findings that pseudo bulges on average have smaller S´ersic indices, smaller bulge-to-total ratios, and fainter surface brightnesses when compared with classical bulges. Our sizable sample statistically shows that pseudo bulges are more intrinsically flattened than classical bulges. Pseudo bulges are most frequent (incidence & 80%) in late-type spirals (later than Sc). Our measurements support the picture in which pseudo bulges arose from star formation induced by inflowing gas, while classical bulges were born out of violent processes such as mergers and coalescence of clumps. We reveal differences with the literature that warrant attention: (1) the bimodal distribution of S´ersicindices presented by previous studies is not reproduced in our study; (2) classical and pseudo bulges have similar relative bulge sizes; and (3) the pseudo bulge fraction is considerably smaller in early-type disks compared with previous studies based on one-dimensional surface brightness profile fitting. -

Some galaxy clusters exhibit shallow or even cored dark matter density profiles in their central regions rather than the pre- dicted steep or cuspy profiles, conflicting with the standard understanding of dark matter. NGC 3311 is the central cD galaxy of the Hydra I cluster (Abell 1060). Aims. We use globular clusters around NGC 3311, combined with kinematical data of the galaxy itself, to investigate the dark matter distribution in the central region of Hydra I . Methods. Radial velocities of 118 bright globular clusters, based on VLT/VIMOS mask spectroscopy, are used to calculate velocity dispersions which are well defined out to 100 kpc. -

Buta1 Received 2005 July 19; accepted 2005 November 19 ABSTRACT We complement our Hubble Space Telescope (HST ) observations of the inner ring of the galaxy NGC 3081 using an analytical approach and n-body simulations. We find that a gas cloud inner (r) ring forms under a rotating bar perturbation with very strong azimuthal cloud crowding where the ring crosses the bar major axis. Thus, star forma- tion results near to and ‘‘downstream’’ of the major axis. From the dust distribution and radial velocities, the disk rotates counterclockwise (CCW) on the sky like the bar pattern speed. We explain the observed CCW color asym- metry crossing the major axis as due to the increasing age of stellar associations inside the r ring major axis. -
Dark Energy and Extending the Geodesic Equations of Motion: Connecting the Galactic and Cosmological Length Scales
General Relativity and Gravitation (2011) DOI 10.1007/s10714-010-1043-z RESEARCHARTICLE A. D. Speliotopoulos Dark energy and extending the geodesic equations of motion: connecting the galactic and cosmological length scales Received: 23 May 2010 / Accepted: 16 June 2010 c The Author(s) 2010 Abstract Recently, an extension of the geodesic equations of motion using the Dark Energy length scale was proposed. Here, we apply this extension to analyz- ing the motion of test particles at the galactic scale and longer. A cosmological check of the extension is made using the observed rotational velocity curves and core sizes of 1,393 spiral galaxies. We derive the density profile of a model galaxy using this extension, and with it, we calculate σ8 to be 0.73±0.12; this is within +0.049 experimental error of the WMAP value of 0.761−0.048. We then calculate R200 to be 206±53 kpc, which is in reasonable agreement with observations. Keywords Dark energy, Galactic density profile, Density fluctuations, Extensions of the geodesic equations of motion, Galactic rotation curves 1 Introduction In a previous paper [1], we constructed an extension of the geodesic equations of motion (GEOM). This construction is possible because with the discovery of +0.82 −30 3 Dark Energy, ΛDE = (7.21−0.84) × 10 g/cm [2; 3; 4], there is now a length 1/2 scale, λDE = c/(ΛDEG) , associated with the universe. As this length scale is also not associated with the mass of any known particle, this extension does not violate various statements of the equivalence principle. -
April 14 2018 7:00Pm at the April 2018 Herrett Center for Arts & Science College of Southern Idaho
Snake River Skies The Newsletter of the Magic Valley Astronomical Society www.mvastro.org Membership Meeting President’s Message Tim Frazier Saturday, April 14th 2018 April 2018 7:00pm at the Herrett Center for Arts & Science College of Southern Idaho. It really is beginning to feel like spring. The weather is more moderate and there will be, hopefully, clearer skies. (I write this with some trepidation as I don’t want to jinx Public Star Party Follows at the it in a manner similar to buying new equipment will ensure at least two weeks of Centennial Observatory cloudy weather.) Along with the season comes some great spring viewing. Leo is high overhead in the early evening with its compliment of galaxies as is Coma Club Officers Berenices and Virgo with that dense cluster of extragalactic objects. Tim Frazier, President One of my first forays into the Coma-Virgo cluster was in the early 1960’s with my [email protected] new 4 ¼ inch f/10 reflector and my first star chart, the epoch 1960 version of Norton’s Star Atlas. I figured from the maps I couldn’t miss seeing something since Robert Mayer, Vice President there were so many so closely packed. That became the real problem as they all [email protected] appeared as fuzzy spots and the maps were not detailed enough to distinguish one galaxy from another. I still have that atlas as it was a precious Christmas gift from Gary Leavitt, Secretary my grandparents but now I use better maps, larger scopes and GOTO to make sure [email protected] it is M84 or M86. -
