Dynamical black hole masses of BL Lac objects from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

We measure black hole masses for 71 BL Lac objects from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey with redshifts out to z~ 0.4. We perform spectral decompositions of their nuclei from their host galaxies and measure their stellar velocity dispersions. Black hole masses are then derived from the black hole mass -...
