Caption: Figure 13.

Left: stacked histograms of the lags between the g-band and the other bands, when the 39 cLD quasars with significant, consistent lag detections are divided into two subsamples based on the median luminosity L_m. The solid black line is the subsample with ﹩L\lt {L}_{m}﹩, while the dashed red line is the subsample with ﹩L\gt {L}_{m}﹩. Right: histograms of the theoretically estimated lags between the g and other bands for the two subsamples divided by luminosity in the same way. From top to bottom, the three rows are for lags between g − r, g − i, and g − z bands respectively.
