Abstract

We have measured the bias of QSOs as a function of QSO luminosity at xed redshift (z <1) by cross-correlating them with luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the same spatial volume, hence breaking the degeneracy between QSO luminosity and redshift. We use three QSO samples from 2SLAQ, 2QZ and Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) covering a QSO absolute magnitude range, -24.5
