The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey: Implementation, data products, open cluster survey, science, and legacy
S. Randich, G. Gilmore, L. Magrini +161
In the last 15 years different ground-based spectroscopic surveys have been started (and completed) with the general aim of delivering stellar parameters and elemental abundances f…
On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes. II. A new S calibration to estimate their metallicity
J. Crestani, M. Fabrizio, V. F. Braga +33
We performed the largest and most homogeneous spectroscopic survey of field RR Lyraes (RRLs). We secured 6,300 high resolution (HR, R35,000) spectra for 143 RRLs (11…
Gaia Early Data Release 3: Acceleration of the solar system from Gaia astrometry
Gaia Collaboration, S. A. Klioner, F. Mignard +414
Context. Gaia Early Data Release 3 (Gaia EDR3) provides accurate astrometry for about 1.6 million compact (QSO-like) extragalactic sources, 1.2 million of which have the best-quali…
Metallicity Distribution of Galactic Halo Field RR Lyrae, and the Effect of Metallicity on their Pulsation Properties
M. Marengo, J. P. Mullen, J. R. Neeley +14
We present our analysis of a large sample (over 150k) of candidate Galactic RR Lyrae (RRL) stars for which we derived high quality photometry at UV, optical and infrared wavelength…
The puzzling high velocity G5 supergiant star HD 179821 : new insight from Gaia DR2 data
M. Parthasarathy, G. Jasniewicz, F. Thévenin
HD 179821 is classified as G5 Ia star. From the IRAS colors and spectral energy distributions it was classified as a post-AGB star. But some studies classify it as a massive (30 to…
On a new method to estimate distance, reddening and metallicity of RR Lyrae stars using optical/near-infrared (,,,,,) mean magnitudes: Centauri as a first test case
G. Bono, G. Iannicola, V. F. Braga +26
We developed a new approach to provide accurate estimates of metal content, reddening and true distance modulus of RR Lyrae stars (RRLs). The method is based on homogeneous optical…
