On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes -- VIII. Early Formation of the Galactic Spheroid

G. Bono, V. F. Braga, M. Fabrizio +54

We introduce a new photometric catalog of RR Lyrae variables (RRLs, 300,000) mainly based on data available in public datasets. We also present the largest and most homogeneo…

Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry

Gaia Collaboration, P. Panuzzo, T. Mazeh +412

Gravitational waves from black-hole merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected base…

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…
