The Gaia-ESO Survey: open clusters in Gaia-DR1 - a way forward to stellar age calibration

S. Randich, E. Tognelli, R. Jackson +42

We describe the methodologies that, taking advantage of Gaia-DR1 and the Gaia-ESO Survey data, enable the comparison of observed open star cluster sequences with stellar evolutiona…

Stellar atmospheric parameters and the Gaia-ESO Survey experience with multiple analysis pipelines

R. Smiljanic, A. J. Korn, A. R. Casey +1

To use libraries of observed stellar spectra, one needs to know the atmospheric parameters of the stars associated to those spectra. It is, however, hard to know what are the real…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Matching Chemo-Dynamical Simulations to Observations of the Milky Way

B. B. Thompson, C. G. Few, M. Bergemann +39

The typical methodology for comparing simulated galaxies with observational surveys is usually to apply a spatial selection to the simulation to mimic the region of interest covere…

Gaia Data Release 1. Testing the parallaxes with local Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars

Gaia Collaboration, G. Clementini, L. Eyer +588

Parallaxes for 331 classical Cepheids, 31 Type II Cepheids and 364 RR Lyrae stars in common between Gaia and the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 catalogues are published in Gaia Data Release…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: the present-day radial metallicity distribution of the Galactic disc probed by pre-main-sequence clusters

L. Spina, S. Randich, L. Magrini +35

The radial metallicity distribution in the Galactic thin disc represents a crucial constraint for modelling disc formation and evolution. Open clusters allow us to derive both the…

AGN luminosity and stellar age -- two missing ingredients for AGN unification as seen with iPTF supernovae

Beatriz Villarroel, Anders Nyholm, Torgny Karlsson +4

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are extremely powerful cosmic objects, driven by accretion of hot gas upon super-massive black holes. The zoo of AGN classes are divided into two major…
