The universe is brighter in the direction of our motion: Galaxy counts and fluxes are consistent with the CMB Dipole

J Darling - The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
An observer moving with respect to the cosmic rest frame should observe a concentration
and brightening of galaxies in the direction of motion and a spreading and dimming in the …

A new way to test the Cosmological Principle: measuring our peculiar velocity and the large-scale anisotropy independently

A tomographic test of cosmic anisotropy with the recently-released quasar sample

D Zhao, JQ Xia - The European Physical Journal C, 2021 - Springer
We test the cosmic anisotropy in the dipole-modulated Λ Λ CDM model and Finslerian

The deceleration parameter in 'tilted'universes: generalising the Friedmann background

CG Tsagas - The European Physical Journal C, 2022 - Springer
Large-scale bulk peculiar motions introduce a characteristic length scale, inside which the
local kinematics are dominated by peculiar-velocity perturbations rather than by the …
