Observational evidence for intermediate-mass black holes
M Mezcua - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2017 - World Scientific
Intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), with masses in the range 1 0 0–1 0 6 M⊙, are the
link between stellar-mass BHs and supermassive BHs (SMBHs). They are thought to be the …

A new sample of (wandering) massive black holes in dwarf galaxies from high-resolution radio observations
We present a sample of nearby dwarf galaxies with radio-selected accreting massive black
holes (BHs), the majority of which are non-nuclear. We observed 111 galaxies using …
