The Central Kinematics and Black Hole Mass of 4C+37.11

The Central Kinematics and Black Hole Mass of 4C+37.11

We report on integral field unit (IFU) measurements of the host of the radio source 4C+37.11. This massive elliptical contains the only resolved double compact nucleus at parsec-scale separation, likely a bound supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB). i -band photometry and GMOS-N IFU spectroscopy sh...
