The peculiar nebula Simeis 57: II. Distance, nature and excitation
L. H. T. Oudshoorn, F. P. Israel, J. Brinchmann +5
Simeis 57 (HS 191) is an optically bright nebula in the Cygnus X region with a peculiar appearance that suggests an outflow from a rotating source. Newly obtained observations and…
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 Data Release 2: Photometric content and validation
D. W. Evans, M. Riello, F. De Angeli +9
Aims. We describe the photometric content of the second data release of the Gaia project (Gaia DR2) and its validation along with the quality of the data. Methods. The validation w…
Gaia: on the road to DR2
D. Katz, A. G. A. Brown
The second Gaia data release (DR2) is scheduled for April 2018. While Gaia DR1 had increased the number of stars with parallaxes by a factor 20 with respect to the Hipparcos catalo…
Maser, infrared and optical emission for late-type stars in the Galactic plane
L. H. Quiroga-Nuñez, H. J. van Langevelde, L. O. Sjouwerman +4
Radio astrometric campaigns using VLBI have provided distances and proper motions for masers associated with young massive stars (BeSSeL survey). The ongoing BAaDE project plans to…
Astrometric Galactic maser measurements cross-matched with Gaia
L. H. Quiroga-Nuñez, H. J. van Langevelde, M. J. Reid +4
Using the VLBA, the BeSSeL survey has provided distances and proper motions of young massive stars, allowing an accurate measure of the Galactic spiral structure. By the same techn…
