The Photo-Astrometric Vertical Tracer Density of the Milky Way II: Results from Gaia
Andrew Everall, Vasily Belokurov, N. Wyn Evans +2
We use Gaia photometry and astrometry to estimate the vertical spatial structure of the Milky Way at the Solar radius, formally accounting for sample incompleteness (the selection…
The Photo-Astrometric Vertical Tracer Density of the Milky Way I: The Method
Andrew Everall, N. Wyn Evans, Vasily Belokurov +2
We introduce a method to infer the vertical distribution of stars in the Milky Way using a Poisson likelihood function, with a view to applying our method to the Gaia catalogue. We…
Completeness of the Gaia-verse V: Astrometry and Radial Velocity sample selection functions in Gaia EDR3
Andrew Everall, Douglas Boubert
We risk reaching false scientific conclusions if we test our physical theories against subsets of the Gaia catalogue without correcting for the biased process by which stars make i…
A selection function toolbox for subsets of astronomical catalogues
Douglas Boubert, Andrew Everall
Large catalogues are ubiquitous throughout astronomy, but most scientific analyses are carried out on smaller samples selected from these catalogues by chosen cuts on catalogued qu…
Selection Functions in Astronomical Data Modeling, with the Space Density of White Dwarfs as Worked Example
Hans-Walter Rix, David W. Hogg, Douglas Boubert +6
Statistical studies of astronomical data sets, in particular of cataloged properties for discrete objects, are central to astrophysics. One cannot model those objects' population p…
Completeness of the Gaia-verse IV: The Astrometry Spread Function of Gaia DR2
Andrew Everall, Douglas Boubert, Sergey E. Koposov +2
Gaia DR2 published positions, parallaxes and proper motions for an unprecedented 1,331,909,727 sources, revolutionising the field of Galactic dynamics. We complement this data with…
