Abstract

We decompose the Pantheon+ Type Ia supernovae (SN) sample in hemispheres on the sky finding angular variations up to $4$ km/s/Mpc in the Hubble constant $H_0$ both in the SH0ES redshift range $0.0233 < z < 0.15$ and in the extended redshift range $0.01 < z < 0.7$. We assume the $Łambda$CDM model, so our findings become model dependent in extended redshift ranges. $H_0$ is larger in a hemisphere encompassing the CMB dipole direction. The variations we see exceed the errors on the recent SH0ES determination, $H_0 = 73.04 1.04$ km/s/Mpc, but are not large enough to explain early versus late Universe discrepancies in the Hubble constant. The removal of low redshift SN leads to a weakening of angular $H_0$ variations, but we confirm that they persist beyond the influence of the Shapley supercluster $z > 0.06$
