Descripción
Starting from a sample of type-2 AGN, the effect of the large-scale
environmental density (LSED, parametrized by the surface density) on the
mass of central black holes (MBH) and SFR in AGN is studied. We find
there is not apparent dependence between the environment and these
variables. The invariance LSED-MBH suggests that there are not traces in
the Local Universe of the possible assembling (build-up) of central
black holes via galaxy merging, or that the mass growth of the black
holes obeys to other different mechanisms not related with the
environment that surrounds those AGN host galaxies. On the other hand,
the invariance LSED-SFR is consistent with previous studies. A strong
correlation between black hole mass in AGN and the SDSS concentration
indexes is finally reported.
