We study correlated fluctuations of Type~Ia supernova observables due to peculiar velocities of both the observer and the supernova host galaxies, and their impact on cosmological parameter estimation. We demonstrate using the CosmicFlows-3 dataset that at low redshifts the corrections for peculiar velocities in the JLA catalogue have been systematically underestimated. By querying a horizon-size N-body simulation we find that compared to a randomly placed observer, an observer in an environment like our local Universe will see 2-8 times stronger correlations between supernovae in the JLA catalogue. Hence the covariances usually employed assuming a typical observer are unphysical and underestimate the effects of coherent motion of the supernova host galaxies. Contrary to previous studies which asserted that this should have negligible effect on cosmological parameter estimation, we find that when peculiar velocities are treated consistently the JLA data favours significantly smaller values of the dark energy density than in the standard $Lambda$CDM model. A joint fit to simultaneously determine the cosmological parameters and the bulk flow indicates that the latter is around 250 km/s even beyond 200$h^{-1}$ Mpc. The local bulk flow is thus an essential nuisance parameter which must be included in cosmological model fitting when analysing supernova data.
We present an analysis of peculiar velocities and their effect on supernova cosmology. In particular, we study (a) the corrections due to our own motion, (b) the effects of correlations in peculiar velocities induced by large-scale structure, and (c)
We quantify the effect of supernova Type Ia peculiar velocities on the derivation of cosmological parameters. The published distant and local Ia SNe used for the Supernova Legacy Survey first-year cosmology report form the sample for this study. Whil
In this work we investigate the systematic uncertainties that arise from the calculation of the peculiar velocity when estimating the Hubble constant ($H_0$) from gravitational wave standard sirens. We study the GW170817 event and the estimation of t
Using Planck data combined with the Meta Catalogue of X-ray detected Clusters of galaxies (MCXC), we address the study of peculiar motions by searching for evidence of the kinetic Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect (kSZ). By implementing various filters design
Accurate simulations of the 21-cm signal from the Epoch of Reionization require the generation of maps at specific frequencies given the values of astrophysical and cosmological parameters. The peculiar velocities of the hydrogen atoms producing the
