The current cosmological paradigm of an accelerating cosmic expansion issupported by observations of Type Ia supernovae. However, the light emittedby these and other cosmological sources is not only redshifted by cosmicexpansion but will also interact with matter along the light path. Especiallyintergalactic dust can lead to additional reddening and dimming of distantsources due to light scattering or absorption. This yields systematiccontaminations to cosmological measurements. This project builds afoundation and some of the tools that will be used in a master’s thesis withthe aim of analysing the spatial distribution and the properties of this cosmicdust. While previous studies assumed cosmic dust to be homogeneouslydistributed, it is expected to follow the spatial distribution of galaxies fromwhich it was expelled. This project also starts to recreate previous models ofhomogeneous dust models and measurements which will be used the futuremaster’s thesis. An analysis of the methods and tools used, along with some ofthe dust properties, is also made in this project.
