小熊座矮星系中黑洞质量的上限

An upper limit on the mass of the black hole in Ursa Minor dwarf galaxy

V. Lora, F. J. Sanchez-Salcedo, A. Raga, A. Esquivel

摘要:

在大多数被研究的星系核中的大质量黑洞(BH)的质量与其宿主星系的各种全球性质之间建立了良好的相关性,这支持了矮星系和球状星团也可能在其中心拥有BH的想法。在矮球状(dSph)星系的黑洞的直接运动学检测严重阻碍了黑洞的引力影响区内的恒星数量少。这封信的目的是建立一个动力学上限的质量假定BH在小熊座(UMi)dSph星系。我们提出了直接的N-体模拟的潮汐中断的动力化石观察到的UMi,有和没有一个大规模的BH。我们发现,观测到的亚结构与UMi核心内存在质量为(2-3)× 10^4 Msun的BH不相容。这些限值与M_{BH} -σ关系外推至M_{BH} <10^6 Msun状态一致。我们还表明,BH可能是偏离中心相对于整个星系的对称中心。

英文摘要:

The well-established correlations between the mass of massive black holes (BHs) in the nuclei of most studied galaxies and various global properties of their hosting galaxy lend support to the idea that dwarf galaxies and globular clusters could also host a BH in their centers. Direct kinematic detection of BHs in dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are seriously hindered by the small number of stars inside the gravitational influence region of the BH. The aim of this Letter is to establish an upper dynamical limit on the mass of the putative BH in the Ursa Minor (UMi) dSph galaxy. We present direct N-body simulations of the tidal disruption of the dynamical fossil observed in UMi, with and without a massive BH. We find that the observed substructure is incompatible with the presence of a massive BH of (2-3)x10^4 Msun within the core of UMi. These limits are consistent with the extrapolation of the M_{BH}-sigma relation to the M_{BH}<10^6 Msun regime. We also show that the BH may be off-center with respect to the center of symmetry of the whole galaxy.
