Abstract

The new, simple method is proposed for testing the Hubble law using redshifts and magnitude from magnitude-limited sample of galaxies. The power law relation between redshift and distance have been assumed (cz=rp). The obtained results: p=1.21 0.04 (for CfA) and p=0.95 0.04 (for ESO/LV) confirm linear, Hubble expansion. The proposed test does not take into account inhomogeneites in space distribution of galaxies.
