Multiple measurements of quasars acing as standard probes: exploring the cosmic distance duality relation at higher redshift

General relativity reproduces main current cosmological observations, assuming the validity of the cosmic distance duality relation (CDDR) at all scales and epochs. However, CDDR is poorly tested in the redshift interval between the farthest observed Type Ia supernovae and that of the cosmic microwave background. We present a new idea of testing the validity of CDDR, through the multiple measurements of high-redshift quasars. Luminosity distances are derived from the relation between the UV and X-ray luminosities of quasars, while angular diameter distances are obtained from the compact structure in radio quasars. This will create a valuable opportunity where two different cosmological distances from the same kind of objects at high redshifts are compared. Our constraints are more stringent than other currently available results based on different observational data and show no evidence for the deviation from CDDR at z similar to 3. Such an accurate model-independent test of fundamental cosmological principles can become a milestone in precision cosmology.
