Gaia Focused Product Release: Spatial distribution of two diffuse interstellar bands
Gaia Collaboration, M. Schultheis, H. Zhao +15
Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) are absorption features seen in optical and infrared spectra of stars that are probably caused by large and complex molecules in the ISM. Here we…
Could very low-metallicity stars with rotation-dominated orbits have been shepherded by the bar?
Zhen Yuan, Chengdong Li, Nicolas F. Martin +11
The most metal-poor stars (e.g. [Fe/H] ) are the ancient fossils from the early assembly epoch of our Galaxy, very likely before the formation of the thick disc. Recent s…
Gaia Focused Product Release: Sources from Service Interface Function image analysis -- Half a million new sources in omega Centauri
Gaia Collaboration, K. Weingrill, A. Mints +400
Gaia's readout window strategy is challenged by very dense fields in the sky. Therefore, in addition to standard Gaia observations, full Sky Mapper (SM) images were recorded for ni…
Exploring the impact of a rapidly decelerating bar on transforming bulge orbits into disc-like orbits
Chengdong Li, Zhen Yuan, Giacomo Monari +7
The most metal-poor tail of the Milky Way ([Fe/H] 2.5) contains a population of stars with very prograde planar orbits, which is puzzling in both their origin and evoluti…
Gaia Focused Product Release: Asteroid orbital solution. Properties and assessment
Gaia Collaboration, P. David, F. Mignard +2
Context. We report the exploitation of a sample of epoch astrometry for 157 000 asteroids, the same object in the Gaia Data Release 3, extended over the time coverage planned for t…
The treasure behind the haystack: MUSE analysis of five recently discovered globular clusters
F. Gran, G. Kordopatis, M. Zoccali +10
After the second data release of Gaia, the number of new globular cluster candidates has increased importantly. However, most of them need to be properly characterised, both spectr…
Gaia Focused Product Release: A catalogue of sources around quasars to search for strongly lensed quasars
Gaia Collaboration, A. Krone-Martins, C. Ducourant +398
Context. Strongly lensed quasars are fundamental sources for cosmology. The Gaia space mission covers the entire sky with the unprecedented resolution of " in the optical, ma…
Gaia Focused Product Release: Radial velocity time series of long-period variables
Gaia Collaboration, M. Trabucchi, N. Mowlavi +403
The third Gaia Data Release (DR3) provided photometric time series of more than 2 million long-period variable (LPV) candidates. Anticipating the publication of full radial-velocit…
Dead man tells tales: metallicity distribution of the Milky Way stellar halo reveals the past of the GSE progenitor galaxy
Sergey Khoperskov, Ivan Minchev, Matthias Steinmetz +4
The Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus~(GSE) stands out as the largest known ancient accretion event in the Milky Way~(MW) history. Despite this significance, the parameters of its progenitor…
Gaia's brightest very metal-poor (VMP) stars. Metallicity catalogue of a thousand VMP stars from Gaia's radial velocity spectrometer spectra
Akshara Viswanathan, Else Starkenburg, Tadafumi Matsuno +10
Context. Gaia DR3 has offered the scientific community a remarkable dataset of approximately one million spectra acquired with the Radial Velocity Spectrometer (RVS) in the Calcium…
The Pristine survey -- XXIII. Data Release 1 and an all-sky metallicity catalogue based on Gaia DR3 BP/RP spectro-photometry
Nicolas F. Martin, Else Starkenburg, Zhen Yuan +38
We used the spectro-photometric information of ~219 million stars from Gaia's DR3 to calculate synthetic, narrow-band, metallicity-sensitive CaHK magnitudes that mimic the observat…
Automatic line selection for abundance determination in large stellar spectroscopic surveys
Georges Kordopatis, Vanessa Hill, Karin Lind
*Context: The optimisation of new multiplex spectrographs (resolution, wavelength range,...), their associated surveys (choice of setup), or their parameterisation pipelines requir…
