Description:
We investigate the correlation between the accretion disk (UV) luminosity and
the radio core emission of a quasar sample, containing all PG quasars, also
deriving empirical conversion factors from emission line luminosities to disk
luminosities. This method allows us to investigate the radio properties of
AGN on the absolute scale set by the accretion power.
The tables contain the quasar (and radio galaxy) sample discussed in this
paper (including the complete PG quasars sample) and give the derived
`disk luminosities' of the UV-bump and 5GHz radio luminosities.
