Abstract

The article titled "Appreciating mergers for understanding the non-linear Mbh−M*,spheroid and Mbh−M*,galaxy relations, updated herein, and the implications for the (reduced) role of AGN feedback" by Alister W Graham and Nandini Sahu discusses an error in equations 4 and 5 of a previous paper. The error resulted in the use of the wrong initial mass function (IMF) for calculating stellar masses. The paper clarifies that this error does not affect the conclusions of the previous paper, but it is important to know which IMF was used for normalization purposes. The article provides IMF conversion factors to make the relations consistent with the intended IMF. [Extracted from the article]
