Scientific paper

Based on four previous studies with standard-candle quasars and using the correct formula for the luminosity distance, we obtain an improved determination of the deceleration parameter, q0 = +2.07. From the new catalog of quasars, we find the statistical m(z) - z relation and hence the mean quasar luminosity M(z) or M(t) and its rates of change d/M(z)/dz and d/M(t)/dt. Finally, we discuss the question whether there is a Malmquist effect in our sample and the question of the dichotomy of published q0-values.
