Quasar UV/X-ray relation luminosity distances are shorter than reverberation-measured radius–luminosity relation luminosity distances
We use measurements of 59/58 quasars (QSOs), over a redshift range 0.0041≤ z≤ 1.686,
to do a comparative study of the radius–luminosity (R− L) and X-ray− UV luminosity (LX …
