Using the CIFIST grid of CO5BOLD 3D model atmospheres to study the effects of stellar granulation on photometric colours. I. Grids of 3D corrections in the UBVRI, 2MASS, Hipparcos, Gaia, and SDSS systems

P. Bonifacio, E. Caffau, H. -G. Ludwig +9

The atmospheres of cool stars are temporally and spatially inhomogeneous due to the effects of convection.The influence of this inhomogeneity, referred to as granulation, on colour…

The sdB pulsating star V391 Peg and its putative giant planet revisited after 13 years of time-series photometric data

R. Silvotti, S. Schuh, S. -L. Kim +10

V391 Peg (alias HS2201+2610) is a subdwarf B (sdB) pulsating star that shows both p- and g-modes. By studying the arrival times of the p-mode maxima and minima through the O-C meth…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: open clusters in Gaia-DR1 - a way forward to stellar age calibration

S. Randich, E. Tognelli, R. Jackson +42

We describe the methodologies that, taking advantage of Gaia-DR1 and the Gaia-ESO Survey data, enable the comparison of observed open star cluster sequences with stellar evolutiona…

Stellar multiplicity in the Milky Way Galaxy

Edita Stonkute, Ross P. Church, Sofia Feltzing +1

We present our models of the effect of binaries on high-resolution spectroscopic surveys. We want to determine how many binary stars will be observed, whether unresolved binaries w…

Where Are the Binaries? Results of a Long-Term Search for Radial Velocity Binaries in Proto-Planetary Nebulae

Bruce J. Hrivnak, Griet Van de Steene, Hans Van Winckel +3

We present the results of an expanded, long-term radial velocity search (25 yrs) for evidence of binarity in a sample of seven bright proto-planetary nebulae (PPNe). The goal is to…

Three-dimensional hydrodynamical CO5BOLD model atmospheres of red giant stars VI. First chromosphere model of a late-type giant

Sven Wedemeyer, Arunas Kucinskas, Jonas Klevas +1

Although observational data unequivocally point out to the presence of chromospheres in red giant stars, no attempts have been made so far to model them using 3D hydrodynamical mod…

Gaia Data Release 1. Testing the parallaxes with local Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars

Gaia Collaboration, G. Clementini, L. Eyer +588

Parallaxes for 331 classical Cepheids, 31 Type II Cepheids and 364 RR Lyrae stars in common between Gaia and the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 catalogues are published in Gaia Data Release…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Galactic evolution of sulphur and zinc

S. Duffau, E. Caffau, L. Sbordone +48

Due to their volatile nature, when sulfur and zinc are observed in external galaxies, their determined abundances represent the gas-phase abundances in the interstellar medium. Thi…

Abundances of Na, Mg, and K in the atmospheres of red giant branch stars of Galactic globular cluster 47 Tucanae

A. Černiauskas, A. Kučinskas, J. Klevas +6

We study the abundances of Na, Mg, and K in the atmospheres of 32 RGB stars in the Galactic globular cluster (GGC) 47 Tuc, with the goal to investigate the possible existence of Na…

Gaia Data Release 1. Open cluster astrometry: performance, limitations, and future prospects

Gaia Collaboration, F. van Leeuwen, A. Vallenari +589

Context. The first Gaia Data Release contains the Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution (TGAS). This is a subset of about 2 million stars for which, besides the position and photometry,…

The Gaia-ESO Survey. Mg-Al anti-correlation in iDR4 globular clusters

E. Pancino, the GES collaboration

We use Gaia-ESO Survey iDR4 data to explore the Mg-Al anti-correlation in globular clusters, that were observed as calibrators, as a demonstration of the quality of Gaia-ESO Survey…
