<i>M</i><sub>•</sub> − <i>σ</i>relation for intermediate-mass black holes in globular clusters
For galaxies hosting supermassive black holes (SMBHs), it has been observed that the mass of the central black hole (M_BH) tightly correlates with the effective or central velocity dispersion (sigma) of the host galaxy. The origin of this M_BH - sigma scaling relation is assumed to lie in the merging …
