The Influence of the Peculiar Velocities of SNe Ia in Clusters of Galaxies on the Redshift Measurements

Abstract

The most intriguing question of modern astronomy is the question of our Universe formation. The Hubble diagram analysis with Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) is widely used to estimate the cosmological parameters with high accuracy. The cosmological measurements allow us to better understand the early stages of the Universe evolution. Nevertheless, the redshift on the SN Ia Hubble diagram includes the contribution from the unknown peculiar velocities that decreases the accuracy of such measurements. We consider the contamination of peculiar velocities of the host galaxies for those SNe that exploded in galaxy clusters. For this purpose, we use the Pantheon cosmological sample and offer the procedure to minimize the influence of such uncertainties.
