Gaia Data Release 1. Summary of the astrometric, photometric, and survey properties
Gaia Collaboration, A. G. A. Brown, A. Vallenari +5
At about 1000 days after the launch of Gaia we present the first Gaia data release, Gaia DR1, consisting of astrometry and photometry for over 1 billion sources brighter than magni…
The Gaia mission
Gaia Collaboration
Gaia is a cornerstone mission in the science programme of the European Space Agency (ESA). The spacecraft construction was approved in 2006, following a study in which the original…
MOCCA Code for Star Cluster Simulations - IV. A new Scenario for Intermediate Mass Black Hole Formation in Globular Clusters
M. Giersz, N. Leigh, A. Hypki +2
We discuss a new scenario for the formation of intermediate mass black holes in dense star clusters. In this scenario, intermediate mass black holes are formed as a result of dynam…
MOCCA Code for Star Cluster Simulations - II. Comparison with N-body Simulations
Mirek Giersz, Douglas C. Heggie, Jarrod Hurley +1
We describe a major upgrade of a Monte Carlo code which has previously been used for many studies of dense star clusters. We outline the steps needed in order to calibrate the resu…
