摘要
Little is currently known about the demographics of black holes in the intermediate-mass range 10(3) - 10(6) M-circle dot, but a small fraction of dwarf galaxies and late-type spirals contain active nuclei that can be used to study black holes in this mass range. We review the properties of the best-known cases and describe a new project that uses AGNs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey to extend the M - sigma relation to masses below 10(6) M-circle dot.
