Gaia Data Release 2: Mapping the Milky Way disc kinematics

Gaia Collaboration, D. Katz, T. Antoja +12

To illustrate the potential of GDR2, we provide a first look at the kinematics of the Milky Way disc, within a radius of several kiloparsecs around the Sun. We benefit for the firs…

Gaia Data Release 2: Variable stars in the colour-absolute magnitude diagram

Gaia Collaboration, L. Eyer, L. Rimoldini +14

The ESA Gaia mission provides a unique time-domain survey for more than 1.6 billion sources with G ~ 21 mag. We showcase stellar variability across the Galactic colour-absolute mag…
