Abstract:
The tight correlations between supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass
(MBH) and the properties of the host galaxy have useful implications
for our understanding of the growth of SMBHs and of the evolution of
galaxies. Here, we present newly observed correlations between MBH and
the host galaxy total UV-[3.6] color (CUV,tot, Pearson's r=0.6-0.7)
for a sample of 67 galaxies (20 early-type galaxies and 47 late-type
galaxies) with directly measured MBH in the Galaxy Evolution
Explorer/S4G survey. The colors are carefully measured in a
homogeneous manner using the far-UV, near-UV, and 3.6µm magnitudes
of the galaxies and their multicomponent structural decompositions in
the literature. We find that more massive SMBHs are hosted by (early-
and late-type) galaxies with redder colors, but the MBH-CUV,tot
relations for the two morphological types have slopes that differ at
∼2σ level. Early-type galaxies define a red sequence in the
MBH-CUV,tot diagrams, while late-type galaxies trace a blue
sequence. Within the assumption that the specific star formation rate
of a galaxy (sSFR) is well traced by LUV/L3.6, it follows that the
SMBH masses for late-type galaxies exhibit a steeper dependence on
sSFR than those for early-type galaxies. The MBH-CUV,tot and
MBH-L3.6,tot relations for the sample galaxies reveal a comparable
level of vertical scatter in the log MBH direction, approximately
5%-27% more than the vertical scatter of the MBH-σ relation.
Our MBH-CUV,tot relations suggest different channels of SMBH
growth for early- and late-type galaxies, consistent with their
distinct formation and evolution scenarios. These new relations offer
the prospect of estimating SMBH masses reliably using the galaxy color
alone. Furthermore, we show that they are capable of estimating
intermediate black hole masses in low-mass early- and late-type
galaxies.
Description:
We selected all galaxies that were in common with
Bouquin+ (2018, J/ApJS/234/18) and van den Bosch (2016, J/ApJ/831/134),
resulting in a sample of 67 galaxies studied in this paper.
