Scaling relations between black holes and their host galaxies: comparing theoretical and observational measurements, and the impact of selection effects
We use the high-resolution simulation MassiveBlackII to examine scaling relations between black hole (BH) mass and host galaxy properties (σ, total M* and LV), finding good agreement with recent observational data, especially at the high-mass end. We find Gaussian intrinsic scatter (∼half the observed scatter) about all three relations, except …
