In galaxy evolution studies, the galaxies and their central super-massive black holes are commonly linked together through bulge growth scenario’s. The evidence is the tight correlation between the black hole mass and the bulge mass in early-type galaxies. Surprisingly, the total mass of the galaxy does not correlate well with black holes mass. In this talk, I will show how black hole masses are measured with stellar kinematics. And I will show how the host galaxy properties correlate to black hole mass. Global processes appear to be most significant. |
