In this paper we determine the dipole in the distance redshift relation from the Pantheon+ data. We find that, while its amplitude roughly agrees with the dipole found in the cosmic microwave background which is attributed to the motion of the solar system with respect to the cosmic rest frame, the direction is different with a significance of slightly more than $3\si$. While the amplitude depends on the lower redshift cutoff, the direction is quite stable. For redshift cuts of order $z_{\rm cut} \simeq 0.05$ and higher, the dipole is no longer detected with high statistical significance. An important r\^ole seems to be played by the redshift corrections for peculiar velocities.

  1. New constraints on cosmic anisotropy from galaxy clusters using an improved dipole fitting method

    astro-ph.CO 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Galaxy cluster observations yield two preferred directions with cosmic anisotropy amplitude of about 5.3 times 10 to the minus 4 at roughly 1 sigma overall significance, though higher in the XMM-Newton subsample.

  2. Testing cosmic anisotropy with the Combo correlation of gamma-ray bursts

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Larger sample of 244 GRBs with Combo correlation shifts best-fit anisotropy longitude by 54° from Pantheon-only result and deviates >1σ in hemisphere method, unlike smaller A118 sample, indicating potential to reduce ...

  3. Probing cosmic anisotropy with galaxy clusters and supernovae

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Analysis of galaxy cluster and supernova data reveals a ~2σ directional variation in the Hubble constant, robust across calibration methods and aligned with the CMB dipole.

  4. Updates on dipolar anisotropy in local measurements of the Hubble constant from Cosmicflows-4

    astro-ph.CO 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Local Hubble constant anisotropy in Cosmicflows-4 data is primarily attributed to peculiar velocities and survey structure rather than cosmic-scale isotropy violation, with limited implications for the Hubble tension.

  5. Revisiting cosmic anisotropy with the Pantheon+ compilation

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Re-analysis of Pantheon+ supernovae finds no statistically compelling evidence for intrinsic cosmic anisotropy; reported signals are subsample-dependent and attributed to data distribution artifacts.
