Descripción
Recently a tight correlation between the bulge velocity dispersion and
the galaxy circular velocity has been found for a sample of spiral
galaxies (Ferrarese 2002). Since bulge velocity dispersion and circular
velocity are related to the masses of the central black hole and dark
matter halo respectively, the correlation between velocity dispersion
and circular velocity is equivalent to one between the mass of
super-massive black hole and dark halo. We explore this correlation by
using velocity dispersions and circular velocities derived from stellar
and ionized-gas kinematics we measured for a sample of 17
intermediate-to-late type spiral galaxies. We plan now to apply the same
analysis to a sample of low surface brightness galaxies.
