Probing the Coevolution of Supermassive Black Holes and Galaxies Using Gravitationally Lensed Quasar Hosts
Open accessAbstract
In the present-day universe, supermassive black hole masses (M BH ) appear to be strongly correlated with their galaxy's bulge luminosity, among other properties.In this study we explore the analogous relationship between M BH , derived using the virial method, and the stellar R-band bulge luminosity (L R ) or stellar bulge mass (M Ã ) at epochs of 1P z P 4:5, using a sample of 31 gravitationally lensed AGNs and 20 nonlensed AGNs.At redshifts z > 1:7 (10 Y12 Gyr ago), we find that the observed M BH -L R relation is nearly the same (to within $0.3 mag) as it is today.When the observed L R are corrected for luminosity evolution, this means that the black holes grew in mass faster than their hosts, with the M BH /M Ã mass ratio being a factor of k4 þ2À1 times larger at z > 1:7 than it is today.By the redshift range 1P z P1:7 (8Y10 Gyr ago), the M BH /M Ã ratio is at most 2 times higher than today, but it may be consistent with no evolution.Combining the results, we conclude that the ratio M BH /M Ã rises with look-back time, although it may saturate at %6 times the local value.Scenarios in which moderately luminous quasar hosts at z k1:7 were fully formed bulges that passively faded to the present epoch are ruled out.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
