Observational validation of the chronometric cosmology: The redshift-magnitude relation for quasi-stellar objects.
A statistical study is made of the redshift-magnitude relation for a recent comprehensive catalogue of quasi-stellar objects. The chronometric theory, although devoid of free parameters such as the q(0) and Lambda of the expansion theory, provides an excellent fit to the observed relation. The expansion theory does not provide an empirically meaningful fit.
