- Abstract
Supermassive black holes (SMBH) are believed to co-evolve with their host galaxies. Evidence for this co-evolution is found in the form of several correlations between the SMBH mass and various properties of the host galaxy, the tightest of which is the bulge stellar velocity dispersion. In order to better understand these correlations, a large and robust dataset of SMBH measurements is required, particularly in the low- and high-mass regime where measurements are still relatively few.
