We investigate the correlation between the mass of a central supermassive black hole and the total gravitational mass of the host galaxy (M_tot). The results are based on 43 galaxy-scale strong gravitational lenses from the Sloan Lens ACS…
We present a CO dynamical estimate of the mass of the super-massive black hole (SMBH) in three nearby early-type galaxies: NGC0612, NGC1574 and NGC4261. Our analysis is based on Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) Cycle 3-6…

We present new velocity dispersion measurements for a set of 12 spiral galaxies and use them to derive a more accurate V_c - sigma relation which holds for a wide morphological range of galaxies. Combined with the M_BH - sigma relation,…
