Estimating distances from parallaxes. III. Distances of two million stars in the Gaia DR1 catalogue
Tri L. Astraatmadja, Coryn A. L. Bailer-Jones
We infer distances and their asymmetric uncertainties for two million stars using the parallaxes published in the Gaia DR1 (GDR1) catalogue. We do this with two distance priors: A…

Estimating distances from parallaxes. II. Performance of Bayesian distance estimators on a Gaia-like catalogue
Tri L. Astraatmadja, Coryn A. L. Bailer-Jones
Estimating a distance by inverting a parallax is only valid in the absence of noise. As most stars in the Gaia catalogue will have non-negligible fractional parallax errors, we mus…
