Does anybody know if there is some analysis of type Ia supernovae data for possibility of unknown intergalactic reddening bias that would result in apparent acceleration of expansion.
Naturally such unknown reddening bias would be function of redshift and it could spoil calculated luminosity distances for SNs with different redshifts.
I found that in this paper http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0510155" there is mentioned some unknown reddening but it's unclear for me how significant is this anomaly.
