We revisited the xA Quasar formalism from the cosmological point of view, where a completely cleaned and standardized sample is compiled from different literature references. This allowed us to test three different cosmological models including wCDM and w0waCDM and ΛCDM resulting in a Hubble constant estimation of H0=69.8±2.2~kms−1Mpc−1 for the compiled sample alone and H0=69.0±0.9~kms−1Mpc−1 when combined with Type I Supernovae (SNIa), Cosmic Chronometers and the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) distance priors. Using both the wCDM and w0waCDM a weak Bayesian preference for the dynamical dark energy models over the ΛCDM model was found. A comparative analysis was performed with other AGN based methods in cosmology like the Reverberation Mapping, the X-Ray and UV non-linear relation and the Angular distance measurements. We conclude that the significant intrinsic dispersion is a key issue present in all samples. Overcoming this dispersion is key to establish xA and other AGN samples as robust and precise cosmological probes.
