It is found that the duty cycle is substantially less than unity, with characteristic values in the range 3-6 x 10-3. Finally, we tested the expectation that the QSO luminosity evolution and the star formation history should be roughly parallel, as a consequence of the above-mentioned relation between BH and galaxy masses."}],"place":"Berlin/Heidelberg","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","author":[{"full_name":"Ciotti, Luca","last_name":"Ciotti","first_name":"Luca"},{"orcid":"0000-0003-3633-5403","full_name":"Haiman, Zoltán","first_name":"Zoltán","last_name":"Haiman","id":"7c006e8c-cc0d-11ee-8322-cb904ef76f36"},{"full_name":"Ostriker, Jeremiah P.","first_name":"Jeremiah P.","last_name":"Ostriker"}],"arxiv":1,"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","year":"2006","page":"106-108","publisher":"Springer Nature","status":"public","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0112131","open_access":"1"}],"conference":{"end_date":"2001-10-26","start_date":"2001-10-24","location":"Venice, Italy","name":"European Southern Observatory and Universitäts-Sternwarte München Workshop"}}
