The Gaia mission Pulsating stars with Gaia
Gaia is a cornerstone mission of the European Space Agency (ESA) selected in 2000, with a target launch date of 2011. The Gaia mission will perform a survey of about 1 billion sources brighter than V = 20. Its goal is to provide astrometry leading to parallaxes, proper-motions and positions. Astrometric data are complemented by multicolour photometry and a spectroscopic instrument (up to V = 17...
متن کاملSimulating multiple stars in preparation for Gaia
The scientific preparation of the Gaia mission encompasses both the data reduction algorithms and the generation of simulated data which have to be as realistic as possible. In this respect, binaries and multiple stars are a mandatory component in the simulation of the Milky Way as they impact on the performance tests of the on-ground data processing. The ingredients for the simulation of multi...
متن کاملGaia and the Evolution of Young Stars
I summarize some of the main problems concerning the evolution of low mass (M < 1:5M) stars from the formation to the main sequence phase and point out the unique potentiality of GAIA in shedding light on the hidden parameters which govern these phases of stellar evolution. GAIA will also be able to monitor the evolution of young massive brown dwarfs in the phase of deuterium burning. 1 Questio...
متن کاملIsochrone ages for field dwarfs: method and application to the age-metallicity relation
A new method is presented to compute age estimates from theoretical isochrones using temperature, luminosity and metallicity data for individual stars. Based on Bayesian probability theory, this method avoids the systematic biases affecting simpler strategies, and provides reliable estimates of the age probability distribution function for late-type dwarfs. Basic assumptions about the a priori ...
متن کاملCrossmatching variable objects with the Gaia data
Tens of millions of new variable objects are expected to be identified in over a billion time series from theGaiamission. Crossmatching known variable sources with those from Gaia is crucial to incorporate current knowledge, understand how these objects appear in the Gaia data, train supervised classifiers to recognise known classes, and validate the results of the Variability Processing and An...
