Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake. How do Planetary Systems Form?
I. Mendigutía, N. Huélamo, I. Jiménez-Serra +32
The detection and characterization of protoplanets in protoplanetary disks around young stars is emerging as a transformative field that will redefine our understanding of how plan…
CHEOPS in-flight performance: A comprehensive look at the first 3.5 years of operations
A. Fortier, A. E. Simon, C. Broeg +128
CHEOPS is a space telescope specifically designed to monitor transiting exoplanets orbiting bright stars. In September 2023, CHEOPS completed its nominal mission and remains in exc…
Euclid: Early Release Observations -- Programme overview and pipeline for compact- and diffuse-emission photometry
J. -C. Cuillandre, E. Bertin, M. Bolzonella +260
The Euclid ERO showcase Euclid's capabilities in advance of its main mission, targeting 17 astronomical objects, from galaxy clusters, nearby galaxies, globular clusters, to star-f…
The CHEOPS mission
Willy Benz, Christopher Broeg, Andrea Fortier +107
The CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS) was selected in 2012, as the first small mission in the ESA Science Programme and successfully launched in December 2019. CHEOPS is…
White Paper on MAAT@GTC
Francisco Prada, Robert Content, Ariel Goobar +41
MAAT is proposed as a visitor mirror-slicer optical system that will allow the OSIRIS spectrograph on the 10.4-m Gran telescopio CANARIAS (GTC) the capability to perform Integral F…
Gaia Data Release 2. Short-timescale variability processing and analysis
M. Roelens, L. Eyer, N. Mowlavi +13
The Gaia DR2 sample of short-timescale variable candidates results from the investigation of the first 22 months of Gaia photometry for a subsample of sources at the Gaia faint end…
Gaia Data Release 2: Properties and validation of the radial velocities
D. Katz, P. Sartoretti, M. Cropper +51
For Gaia DR2 (GDR2), 280 million spectra, collected by the RVS instrument on-board Gaia, were processed and median radial velocities were derived for 9.8 million sources brighter t…
Gaia Data Release 2: Photometric content and validation
D. W. Evans, M. Riello, F. De Angeli +9
Aims. We describe the photometric content of the second data release of the Gaia project (Gaia DR2) and its validation along with the quality of the data. Methods. The validation w…
Dynamical Analysis of Nearby ClustErs. Automated astrometry from the ground: precision proper motions over wide field
H. Bouy, E. Bertin, E. Moraux +5
The kinematic properties of the different classes of objects in a given association hold important clues about its member's history, and offer a unique opportunity to test the pred…
CAFE: Calar Alto Fiber-fed Echelle spectrograph
J. Aceituno, S. F. Sanchez, F. Grupp +9
We present here CAFE, the Calar Alto Fiber-fed Echelle spectrograph, a new instrument built at the Centro Astronomico Hispano Alemán (CAHA). CAFE is a single fiber, high-resolution…
Properties of ultra-cool dwarfs with Gaia. An assessment of the accuracy for the temperature determination
Luis M. Sarro, Angel Berihuete, Cesar Carrion +3
We aimed to assess the accuracy of the Gaia teff and logg estimates as derived with current models and observations. We assessed the validity of several inference techniques for de…
The Calar Alto Observatory: current status and future instrumentation
D. Barrado, U. Thiele, J. Aceituno +13
The Calar Alto Observatory, located at 2168m height above the sea level in continental Europe, holds a significant number of astronomical telescopes and experiments, covering a lar…
