Scientific paper

From a list of 114 bright QSOs, Schmidt and Green (1983) have obtained an average value for V/Vm, which led them to the conclusion that local hypotheses for QSOs are to be rejected. The present investigation is concerned with questions regarding the justification of this conclusion, taking into account the validity of the V/Vm test. It is found that random errors in the flux measurements produce a systematic bias towards increasing the considered value. This conclusion is illustrated with the aid of an idealized example. The disproof of the cosmological theory is considered. It is concluded that the new data obtained confirms the disproof of the cosmological theory given in Cardiff Preprint No. 88.
