Measuring the masses of supermassive black holes
BM Peterson - The Physics of Accretion onto Black Holes, 2015 - Springer
Supermassive black holes reside at the centers of most, if not all, massive galaxies: the
difference between active and quiescent galaxies is due to differences in mass accretion …

Estimating black hole masses in quasars using broad optical and UV emission lines
P Marziani, JW Sulentic - New Astronomy Reviews, 2012 - Elsevier
We review past work using broad emission lines as virial estimators of black hole masses in
quasars. Basically one requires estimates of the emitting region radius and virial velocity …
