A catalog of known Galactic K-M stars of class I, candidate RSGs, in Gaia DR2
Maria Messineo, Anthony G. A Brown
We investigate individual distances and luminosities of a sample of 889 nearby candidate red supergiants with reliable parallaxes (plx/plxerr > 4 and RUWE < 2.7) from Gaia DR2. The…
An artificial neural network to discover Hypervelocity stars: Candidates in Gaia DR1/TGAS
T. Marchetti, E. M. Rossi, G. Kordopatis +5
The paucity of hypervelocity stars (HVSs) known to date has severely hampered their potential to investigate the stellar population of the Galactic Centre and the Galactic Potentia…
On-orbit performance of the Gaia CCDs at L2
C. Crowley, R. Kohley, N. C. Hambly +19
The European Space Agency's Gaia satellite was launched into orbit around L2 in December 2013 with a payload containing 106 large-format scientific CCDs. The primary goal of the mi…
Gaia Data Release 1. Summary of the astrometric, photometric, and survey properties
Gaia Collaboration, A. G. A. Brown, A. Vallenari +5
At about 1000 days after the launch of Gaia we present the first Gaia data release, Gaia DR1, consisting of astrometry and photometry for over 1 billion sources brighter than magni…
The evolution of the Sun's birth cluster and the search for the solar siblings with Gaia
C. A. Martínez-Barbosa, A. G. A. Brown, T. Boekholt +3
We use self-consistent numerical simulations of the evolution and disruption of the Sun's birth cluster in the Milky Way potential to investigate the present-day phase space distri…
The solar siblings in the Gaia era
C. A. Martínez-Barbosa, A. G. A. Brown, S. Portegies Zwart
We perform realistic simulations of the Sun's birth cluster in order to predict the current distribution of solar siblings in the Galaxy. We study the possibility of finding the so…
