Young stars discovered in dwarf spheroidal galaxies confirm their recent infall into the Milky way
Francois Hammer, Piercarlo Bonifacio, Elisabetta Caffau +10
Recent observations from the ESA Gaia satellite and with the ESO VLT, have identified the presence of a population of young, 0.5 to 2 Gyr old, stars in the halo and in dwarf sphero…
VLTI/GRAVITY upper limit on near-infrared emission from the nearby 33 Msun black hole Gaia BH3
Pierre Kervella, Pasquale Panuzzo, Alexandre Gallenne +11
The recent astrometric discovery of the nearby (590 pc) massive () dormant black hole candidate Gaia BH3 offers the possibility to angularly resolve the black hole from…
Gaia Data Release 3: spectroscopic binary-star orbital solutions. The SB1 processing chain
E. Gosset, Y. Damerdji, T. Morel +7
Gaia is an astrometric space experiment that is measuring positions, proper motions as well as parallaxes for a huge number of stars. It operates a medium-dispersion spectrometer,…
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 -- Catalogue validation
C. Fabricius, X. Luri, F. Arenou +33
The third Gaia data release is published in two stages. The early part, Gaia EDR3, gives very precise astrometric and photometric properties for nearly two billion sources together…
Multiplicity of Galactic Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars from Gaia DR2 -- II. Resolved common proper motion pairs
P. Kervella, A. Gallenne, N. R. Evans +6
Context. The multiplicity of classical Cepheids (CCs) and RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) is still imperfectly known, particularly for RRLs. Aims. In order to complement the close-in short o…
