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 …
