On measuring the Hubble constant with X-ray reverberation mapping of active galactic nuclei

<jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title> <jats:p>We show that X-ray reverberation mapping can be used to measure the distance to type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs). This is because X-ray photons originally emitted from the ‘corona’ close to the black hole irradiate the a...
