Gaia Early Data Release 3: The Gaia Catalogue of Nearby Stars

Gaia Collaboration, R. L. Smart, L. M. Sarro +420

We produce a clean and well-characterised catalogue of objects within 100\,pc of the Sun from the \G\ Early Data Release 3. We characterise the catalogue through comparisons to the…

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…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Oxygen abundance in the Galactic thin and thick disks

Mariagrazia Franchini, Carlo Morossi, Paolo Di Marcantonio +18

We analyze the oxygen abundances of a stellar sample representative of the two major Galactic populations: the thin and thick disks. The aim is to investigate the differences betwe…

The diffuse interstellar band around 8620 Å I. Methods and application to the GIBS data set

H. Zhao, M. Schultheis, A. Recio-Blanco +6

We developed a set of procedures to automatically detect and measure the DIB around 8620 Å (the Gaia DIB) for a wide range of temperatures. The DIB profile is fit with a Gaussian f…

The chemodynamics of prograde and retrograde Milky Way stars

Georges Kordopatis, Alejandra Recio-Blanco, Mathias Schultheis +1

Context: The accretion history of the Milky Way is still unknown, despite the recent discovery of stellar systems that stand out in terms of their energy-angular momentum space, su…

An optimised tiling pattern for multi-object spectroscopic surveys: application to the 4MOST survey

E. Tempel, T. Tuvikene, M. M. Muru +22

Large multi-object spectroscopic surveys require automated algorithms to optimise their observing strategy. One of the most ambitious upcoming spectroscopic surveys is the 4MOST su…

The -Process Alliance: Fourth Data Release from the Search for -Process-Enhanced Stars in the Galactic Halo

Erika M. Holmbeck, Terese T. Hansen, Timothy C. Beers +22

This compilation is the fourth data release from the -Process Alliance (RPA) search for -process-enhanced stars, and the second release based on "snapshot" high-resolution ($…

The RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE): Parameterisation of RAVE spectra based on convolutional neural networks

G. Guiglion, G. Matijevic, A. B. A. Queiroz +22

In the context of large spectroscopic surveys of stars, data-driven methods are key in deducing physical parameters for millions of spectra in a short time. Convolutional neural ne…

The Pristine survey VIII: The metallicity distribution function of the Milky Way halo down to the extremely metal-poor regime

K. Youakim, E. Starkenburg, N. F. Martin +15

The Pristine survey uses narrow-band photometry to derive precise metallicities down to the extremely metal-poor regime ([Fe/H] < -3), and currently consists of over 4 million FGK-…
