J.

The assumption that the supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass ($M_{\\rm BH}$) is directly proportional to the classical bulge mass, with the proportionality given by that for massive galaxies, predicts a $M_{\\rm BH}$ - $M_\\star$ relation that matches well the observed relation for different types of galaxies. In particular, the model reproduces the strong transition at $M_\\star=10^{10.5}$ - $10^{11}M_{\\odot}$, below which $M_{\\rm BH}$ drops rapidly with decreasing $M_\\star$. Our model predicts a new sequence at $M_\\star <10^{10.5}M_{\\odot}$, where $M_{\\rm BH} \\propto M_\\star$ but the amplitude is a factor of $\\sim 50$ lower than the amplitude of the sequence at $M_\\star>10^{11}M_{\\odot}$. If all SMBH grow through similar quasar modes with a feedback efficiency of a few percent, the energy produced in low-mass galaxies at redshift $z\\gtrsim 2$ can heat the circum-galactic medium up to a specific entropy level that is required to prevent excessive star formation in low-mass dark matter halos.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-07-16T16:51:04.000Z", "comment": "5 pages, 3 figures, submitted to Astrophysical Journal Letters", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-03-31T11:58:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "low-mass galaxies", "agn feedback", "supermassive blackholes", "classical bulge mass", "low-mass dark matter halos" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/0004-637X/802/2/110", "journal": "The Astrophysical Journal", "year": 2015, "month": "Apr", "volume": 802, "number": 2, "pages": 110 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1306656, "adsabs": "2015ApJ...802..110L" } } }
