Comment on "Correlation between Compact Radio Lout Quasars and Ultrahigh Energy Cosmic Rays"

Abstract

In a recent paper, Farrar and Biermann argue that there is a strong correlation between the direction of the five highest-energy cosmic-ray events and compact, radio-loud quasars. This Comment shows that this analysis contains several inconsistencies and errors so that the significance of any such correlation is certainly greatly overestimated and perhaps nonexistent.
