2D stellar kinematics of Mrk 1216
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Mrk 1216 is a nearby, early-type galaxy with a small effective radius of 2.8kpc and a large stellar velocity dispersion of 308km/s for its K-band luminosity of 1.4x10^11^L_{sun}_.
Description
Using integral field spectroscopy assisted by adaptive optics from Gemini North, we measure spatially resolved stellar kinematics within ~450pc of the galaxy nucleus. The galaxy exhibits regular rotation with velocities of +/-180km/s and a sharply peaked velocity dispersion profile that reaches 425km/s at the center.
We fit axisymmetric, orbit-based dynamical models to the combination of these high angular resolution kinematics, large-scale kinematics extending to roughly three effective radii, and Hubble Space Telescope imaging, resulting in a constraint of the mass of the central black hole in Mrk 1216. After exploring several possible sources of systematics that commonly affect stellar-dynamical black hole mass measurements, we find a black hole mass of M_BH_=(4.9+/-1.7)x10^9^M_{sun}_ and an H-band stellar mass-to-light ratio of {Upsilon}_H_=1.3+/-0.4{Upsilon}_{sun}_ (1{sigma} uncertainties).

Mrk 1216 is consistent with the local black hole mass-stellar velocity dispersion relation, but is a factor of ~5-10 larger than expectations from the black hole mass-bulge luminosity and black hole mass-bulge mass correlations when conservatively using the galaxy's total luminosity or stellar mass. This behavior is quite similar to the extensively studied compact galaxy NGC 1277. Resembling the z~2 quiescent galaxies, Mrk 1216 may be a passively evolved descendant, and perhaps reflects a previous era when galaxies contained over-massive black holes relative to their bulge luminosities/masses, and the growth of host galaxies had yet to catch up.
