Is the violent behavior of quasars caused by black holes in galaxies? If so, does the discovery of black holes in the centers of many normal galaxies mean that all galaxies were once quasars? ... If this is the case, then normal galaxies should still have massive black holes in their nuclei, like quasars, but these black holes should now be starved of fuel. ... What we do not yet know is what fraction of all normal galaxies once passed through a quasar phase. ... Scientific American. ...

... To avoid extensive numerical calculations in the statistical simulations, we treat the continuous evolution of each binary component as a sequence of a finite number of basic evolutionary states (for example, main sequence, red (super)giant, helium (Wolf-Rayet) star,     hot WD), in which stellar parameters significantly differ from each other. ... Figure 2: Schematic representation of the typical evolutionary track of a massive binary system with normal and compact star stages indicated. ...
