Peculiar velocities of clusters of galaxies can be measured by studying the fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) generated by the scattering of the microwave photons by the hot X-ray emitting gas inside clusters. While for individual clusters such measurements result in large errors, a large statistical sample of clusters allows one to study cumulative quantities dominated by the overall bulk flow of the sample with the statistical errors integrating down. We present results from such a measurement using the largest all-sky X-ray cluster catalog combined to date and the 3-year WMAP CMB data. We find a strong and coherent bulk flow on scales out to at least > 300 h^{-1} Mpc, the limit of our catalog. This flow is difficult to explain by gravitational evolution within the framework of the concordance LCDM model and may be indicative of the tilt exerted across the entire current horizon by far-away pre-inflationary inhomogeneities.

Horndeski in motion
Shift-symmetric Horndeski scalars with a spatial gradient realize moving dark energy, with a universal momentum density T^0i = -Q lambda^i / sqrt(-g) and observable imprints on the CMB dipole and quadrupole.

Expected redshift drift for tilted observers
Redshift drift for tilted observers consists of an FLRW background term plus directional corrections from peculiar expansion, projected shear, and acceleration along the line of sight.

Covariant cosmography in the presence of local structures: comparing exact solutions and perturbation theory
Off-center observers in a spherical LTB overdensity get accurate cosmographic distances up to δc≈2.5 near the structure, while linear perturbation theory is better beyond ~3Rs; a gauge dictionary links the two.

Gaia quasar proper motions show a significant quadrupole signal matching an axisymmetric Bianchi I anisotropy model, but the amplitude does not increase with redshift as the model requires and the inferred local shear...

Redshift Dependence of $H_0$ Dipole in Pantheon+ Supernovae
A dipole in the locally measured Hubble constant appears at 2-3 sigma in the lowest-redshift Pantheon+ supernova bins, points near the Shapley supercluster and CMB dipole, and disappears for higher redshift thresholds.

Little Red reionization factories
LRDs may drive cosmic reionization: tidal fields are said to funnel intergalactic hydrogen into colliding streams at LRD sites, igniting starbursts that ionize the gas.
