The Twofold Quasar-galaxy Connection

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The rise and the fall of the QS population are explained in terms of massive black holes forming/accreting during the assemblage of the host galaxies, and of accretion rekindled by interactions of the host with companions in a group. We compute the LFs out to z= 6. We also predict the masses of relict black holes to be found in many galaxies. We compare the histories of the QSO and of the star light.
