AbstractThe growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) appears to be closely linked with the formation of spheroids. There is a pressing need to acquire better statistics on SMBH masses, since the existing samples are preferentially weighted toward early-type galaxies with very massive SMBHs. With this motivation we started a project aimed at measuring upper limits on the mass of the SMBHs that can be present in the center of all the nearby galaxies (D < 100 Mpc) for which STIS/G750M spectra are available in the HST archive. These upper limits will be derived by modeling the central emission-line widths ([N II] λλ6548, 6583, Hα and [S II] λλ6716, 6731) observed over an aperture of ~01 (R < 50 pc). Here we present our preliminary results for a subsample of 76 bulges.

Fluctuation Method

We present the results of our detailed WFPC2-based photometric study of the globular cluster systems (GCS) of over 60 elliptical and SO galaxies. Approximately 50% of the GCSs of ellipticals, and at least 15–20% of S0s reveal bimodality in the color distribution. We trace the variation in GCS properties with Hubble type and discuss the implications on the various models of galaxy (and cluster system) formation. We also provide evidence that the globular cluster luminosity function is an excellent distance indicator with an accuracy comparable to the surface brightness fluctuation method.
