Cosmological Distance Scale. Part 6. Statistical Anisotropy of Red Shift

Аннотация

The data on the type SN Ia supernovae used to confirm the accelerated “expansion of the universe” in 1998–1999 are analyzed statistically. A substantial statistical anisotropy with respect to declination is found in these data. It is shown that an examination of the relationship between the red shift of SN Ia supernovae and the photometric distance based on these data is not the most plausible hypothesis. An example of the construction of an anisotropic cosmological distance scale is given.
