The Second-Generation Guide Star Catalog: Description and Properties
B. M. Lasker, M. G. Lattanzi, B. J. McLean +23
The GSC-II is an all-sky database of objects derived from the uncompressed DSS that the STScI has created from the Palomar and UK Schmidt survey plates and made available to the co…
Gaia: Organisation and challenges for the data processing
F. Mignard, C. Bailer-Jones, U. Bastian +9
Gaia is an ambitious space astrometry mission of ESA with a main objective to map the sky in astrometry and photometry down to a magnitude 20 by the end of the next decade. While t…

C. Jordi, E. Hoeg, A. G. A. Brown +32
The European Gaia astrometry mission is due for launch in 2011. Gaia will rely on the proven principles of ESA's Hipparcos mission to create an all-sky survey of about one billion…
A three-dimensional Galactic extinction model
R. Drimmel, A. Cabrera-Lavers, M. Lopez-Corredoira
A large-scale three-dimensional model of Galactic extinction is presented based on the Galactic dust distribution model of Drimmel and Spergel (2001). The extinction A_V to any poi…
The Torino Observatory Parallax Program: White Dwarf Candidates
R. L. Smart, M. G. Lattanzi, B. Bucciarelli +7
We present parallax determinations for six white dwarf candidates in the Torino Observatory Parallax Program. The absolute parallaxes are found with precisions at the 2-3 milliarcs…
