Probing the anisotropic local universe and beyond with SNe Ia data

The question of the transition to global isotropy from our anisotropic local Universe is studied using the Union 2 catalogue of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). We construct a "residual" statistic sensitive to systematic shifts in their brightness in different directions and use this to search...
