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: Modelling and calibration of Gaia's point and line spread functions
N. Rowell, M. Davidson, L. Lindegren +18
Context: The unprecedented astrometric precision of the Gaia mission relies on accurate estimates of the locations of sources in the Gaia data stream. This is ultimately performed…
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 Data Release 2. Short-timescale variability processing and analysis
M. Roelens, L. Eyer, N. Mowlavi +13
The Gaia DR2 sample of short-timescale variable candidates results from the investigation of the first 22 months of Gaia photometry for a subsample of sources at the Gaia faint end…
Gaia Data Release 2: Observations of solar system objects
Gaia Collaboration, F. Spoto, P. Tanga +4
The Gaia spacecraft of the European Space Agency (ESA) has been securing observations of solar system objects (SSOs) since the beginning of its operations. Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2…
Gaia Data Release 2: The Celestial reference frame (Gaia-CRF2)
F. Mignard, S. Klioner, L. Lindegren +3
The second release of Gaia data (Gaia DR2) contains the astrometric parameters for more than half a million quasars. This set defines a kinematically non-rotating reference frame i…
