Extended Data Figure 3: Best-fit MBH values for NGC 1600 and confidence intervals.
From: A 17-billion-solar-mass black hole in a group galaxy with a diffuse core
The relative likelihood of different MBH values, marginalized over M⋆/L, rDM and vDM (shaded area; the likelihood is arbitrarily scaled). The best-fit values and confidence intervals are derived from the cumulative likelihood distribution43 and indicated by the vertical lines. The red line shows 
, where χ2(MBH) is the minimum of all models with the same MBH, but different M⋆/L, rDM and vDM; 
is the minimum of χ2(MBH) over MBH.
