Asymmetry In The Reconstructed Deceleration Parameter

We study the orientation dependence of the reconstructed deceleration parameter as a function of redshift. We use the Union 2 and Loss datasets, by using the well known preferred axis discussed in the literature, finding the best fit reconstructed deceleration parameter. We found that a low redshift transition of the reconstructed $q(z)$ is clearly absent in one direction and amazingly sharp in the opposite one. We discuss the possibility that such a behavior can be associated with large scale structures affecting the data.
