Marginal evidence for cosmic acceleration from Type Ia supernovae
read the original abstract
The "standard" model of cosmology is founded on the basis that the expansion rate of the universe is accelerating at present --- as was inferred originally from the Hubble diagram of Type Ia supernovae. There exists now a much bigger database of supernovae so we can perform rigorous statistical tests to check whether these "standardisable candles" indeed indicate cosmic acceleration. Taking account of the empirical procedure by which corrections are made to their absolute magnitudes to allow for the varying shape of the light curve and extinction by dust, we find, rather surprisingly, that the data are still quite consistent with a constant rate of expansion.

Pantheon+ supernovae corrected for progenitor age indicate the universe is decelerating
Progenitor age corrections applied to Pantheon+ data shift the monopole q0 to positive values (deceleration) while the local dipole remains unchanged.

Mapping the Universe as a Bianchi I cosmology with Gaia data
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...
