New evidence and analysis of cosmological-scale asymmetry in galaxy spin directions

Abstract

In the past several decades, multiple cosmological theories that are based on the contention that the Universe has a major axis have been proposed. Such theories can be based on the geometry of the Universe, or multiverse theories such as black hole cosmology. The contention of a cosmological-scale axis is supported by certain evidence such as the dipole axis formed by the CMB distribution. Here I study another form of cosmological-scale axis, based on the distribution of the spin direction of spiral galaxies. Data from four different telescopes is analyzed, showing nearly identical axis profiles when the distribution of the redshifts of the galaxies is similar.
