Gaia DR3 detectability of unresolved binary systems
Alfred Castro-Ginard, Zephyr Penoyre, Andrew R. Casey +10
Gaia can not individually resolve very close binary systems, however, the collected data can still be used to identify them. A powerful indicator of stellar multiplicity is the sou…
Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry
Gaia Collaboration, P. Panuzzo, T. Mazeh +412
Gravitational waves from black-hole merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected base…
Uniting Gaia and APOGEE to unveil the cosmic chemistry of the Milky Way disc
Tristan Cantat-Gaudin, Morgan Fouesneau, Hans-Walter Rix +6
The spatial distribution of Galactic stars with different chemical abundances encodes information on the processes that drove the formation and evolution of the Milky Way. Survey s…
Gaia Focused Product Release: A catalogue of sources around quasars to search for strongly lensed quasars
Gaia Collaboration, A. Krone-Martins, C. Ducourant +398
Context. Strongly lensed quasars are fundamental sources for cosmology. The Gaia space mission covers the entire sky with the unprecedented resolution of " in the optical, ma…
Estimating the selection function of Gaia DR3 sub-samples
A. Castro-Ginard, A. G. A. Brown, Z. Kostrzewa-Rutkowska +9
Understanding which sources are present in an astronomical catalogue and which are not is crucial for the accurate interpretation of astronomical data. In particular, for the multi…
An empirical model of the Gaia DR3 selection function
Tristan Cantat-Gaudin, Morgan Fouesneau, Hans-Walter Rix +11
Interpreting and modelling astronomical catalogues requires an understanding of the catalogues' completeness or selection function: objects of what properties had a chance to end u…
A new resonance-like feature in the outer disc of the Milky Way
Ronald Drimmel, Shourya Khanna, Elena D'Onghia +18
Modern astrometric and spectroscopic surveys have revealed a wealth of structure in the phase space of stars in the Milky Way, with evidence of resonance features and non-equilibri…
Gaia Data Release 3: Mapping the asymmetric disc of the Milky Way
Gaia Collaboration, R. Drimmel, M. Romero-Gomez +453
With the most recent Gaia data release the number of sources with complete 6D phase space information (position and velocity) has increased to well over 33 million stars, while ste…
The disturbed outer Milky Way disc
Paul J. McMillan, Jonathan Petersson, Thor Tepper-Garcia +9
The outer parts of the Milky Way's disc are significantly out of equilibrium. Using only distances and proper motions of stars from Gaia's Early Data Release 3, in the range |b|<10…
Measuring the Streaming motion in the Milky Way disc with Gaia EDR3 +
Shourya Khanna, Sanjib Sharma, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +1
We map the 3D kinematics of the Galactic disc out to 3.5 kpc from the Sun, and within 0.75 kpc from the midplane of the Galaxy. To this end, we combine high quality astrometry from…
Gaia Early Data Release 3: Structure and properties of the Magellanic Clouds
Gaia Collaboration, X. Luri, L. Chemin +417
We compare the Gaia DR2 and Gaia EDR3 performances in the study of the Magellanic Clouds and show the clear improvements in precision and accuracy in the new release. We also show…
Gaia Early Data Release 3: The Galactic anticentre
Gaia Collaboration, T. Antoja, P. McMillan +417
We aim to demonstrate the scientific potential of the Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) for the study of the Milky Way structure and evolution. We used astrometric positions, proper…
Gaia Early Data Release 3: Acceleration of the solar system from Gaia astrometry
Gaia Collaboration, S. A. Klioner, F. Mignard +414
Context. Gaia Early Data Release 3 (Gaia EDR3) provides accurate astrometry for about 1.6 million compact (QSO-like) extragalactic sources, 1.2 million of which have the best-quali…
The GALAH Survey: Dependence of elemental abundances on age and metallicity for stars in the Galactic disc
Sanjib Sharma, Michael R. Hayden, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +24
Using data from the GALAH survey, we explore the dependence of elemental abundances on stellar age and metallicity among Galactic disc stars. We find that the abundance of most ele…
The GALAH+ Survey: Third Data Release
Sven Buder, Sanjib Sharma, Janez Kos +44
The ensemble of chemical element abundance measurements for stars, along with precision distances and orbit properties, provides high-dimensional data to study the evolution of the…
Fundamental relations for the velocity dispersion of stars in the Milky Way
Sanjib Sharma, Michael R. Hayden, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +34
We explore the fundamental relations governing the radial and vertical velocity dispersions of stars in the Milky Way, from combined studies of complementary surveys including GALA…
The K2-HERMES Survey: Age and Metallicity of the Thick Disc
Sanjib Sharma, Dennis Stello, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +34
Asteroseismology is a promising tool to study Galactic structure and evolution because it can probe the ages of stars. Earlier attempts comparing seismic data from the {\it Kepler}…
The GALAH survey and Gaia DR2: Linking ridges, arches and vertical waves in the kinematics of the Milky Way
Shourya Khanna, Sanjib Sharma, Thor Tepper-Garcia +15
Gaia DR2 has revealed new small-scale and large-scale patterns in the phase-space distribution of stars in the Milky Way. In cylindrical Galactic coordinates , ridge-like…
The GALAH Survey: Chemodynamics of the Solar Neighbourhood
Michael R. Hayden, Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Sanjib Sharma +13
We present the chemodynamic structure of the solar neighbourhood using 62 814 stars within a 500 pc sphere of the Sun observed by GALAH and with astrometric parameters from Gaia DR…

We use the second data releases of the ESA Gaia astrometric survey and the high-resolution GALAH spectroscopic survey to analyse the structure of our Galaxy's disc components. With…
The GALAH Survey: Velocity fluctuations in the Milky Way using red clump giants
Shourya Khanna, Sanjib Sharma, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +20
If the Galaxy is axisymmetric and in dynamical equilibrium, we expect negligible fluctuations in the residual line-of-sight velocity field. Recent results using the \apg{} survey f…
