How strong is the evidence for accelerated expansion?
Marina Seikel, Dominik J. Schwarz
We test the present expansion of the universe using supernova type Ia data without making any assumptions about the matter and energy content of the universe or about the parameter…
Scale dependence of cosmological backreaction
Nan Li, Dominik J. Schwarz
Due to the non-commutation of spatial averaging and temporal evolution, inhomogeneities and anisotropies (cosmic structures) influence the evolution of the averaged Universe via th…
(An)isotropy of the Hubble diagram: comparing hemispheres
Dominik J. Schwarz, Bastian Weinhorst
We test the isotropy of the Hubble diagram. At small redshifts, this is possible without assumptions on the cosmic inventory and provides a fundamental test of the cosmological pri…
Correlating anomalies of the microwave sky: The Good, the Evil and the Axis
Aleksandar Rakic, Dominik J. Schwarz
At the largest angular scales the presence of a number of unexpected features has been confirmed by the latest measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Among them are…
On the onset of cosmological backreaction
Nan Li, Dominik J. Schwarz
Cosmological backreaction has been suggested as an explanation of dark energy and is heavily disputed since. We combine cosmological perturbation theory with Buchert's non-perturba…
