Gaia Early Data Release 3: The Gaia Catalogue of Nearby Stars

Gaia Collaboration, R. L. Smart, L. M. Sarro +420

We produce a clean and well-characterised catalogue of objects within 100\,pc of the Sun from the \G\ Early Data Release 3. We characterise the catalogue through comparisons to the…

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…

Characterising the Gaia Radial Velocity sample selection function in its native photometry

Jan Rybizki, Hans-Walter Rix, Markus Demleitner +2

The Gaia DR2 radial velocity sample (GDR2RVS), which provides six-dimensional phase-space information on 7.2 million stars, is of great value for inferring properties of the Milky…

An astronomical institute's perspective on meeting the challenges of the climate crisis

Knud Jahnke, Christian Fendt, Morgan Fouesneau +10

Analysing greenhouse gas emissions of an astronomical institute is a first step in reducing its environmental impact. Here, we break down the emissions of the Max Planck Institute…

Data-Driven Stellar Models

Gregory M. Green, Hans-Walter Rix, Leon Tschesche +7

We develop a data-driven model to map stellar parameters (effective temperature, surface gravity and metallicity) accurately and precisely to broad-band stellar photometry. This mo…

A Gaia early DR3 mock stellar catalog: Galactic prior and selection function

Jan Rybizki, Markus Demleitner, Coryn Bailer-Jones +7

We present a mock stellar catalog, matching in volume, depth and data model the content of the planned Gaia early data release 3 (Gaia EDR3). We have generated our catalog (GeDR3mo…

From birth associations to field stars: mapping the small-scale orbit distribution in the Galactic disc

Johanna Coronado, Hans-Walter Rix, Wilma H. Trick +3

Stars born at the same time in the same place should have formed from gas of the same element composition. But most stars subsequently disperse from their birth siblings, in orbit…
