Gaia Data Release 2. Summary of the contents and survey properties

Anthony G. A. Brown, +452 more
TL;DR: The second Gaia data release, Gaia DR2 as mentioned in this paper, is a major advance with respect to Gaia DR1 in terms of completeness, performance, and richness of the data products.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Gaia mission

T. Prusti, +624 more
TL;DR: Gaia as discussed by the authors 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 interferometric concept was changed to a direct-imaging approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

parsec: stellar tracks and isochrones with the PAdova and TRieste Stellar Evolution Code

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an updated version of the AESOPUS code used to compute stellar evolutionary tracks in Padova, which is the result of a thorough revision of put physics, together with the inclusion of the pre-main sequence phase.
Journal ArticleDOI

PARSEC: stellar tracks and isochrones with the PAdova and TRieste Stellar Evolution Code

TL;DR: In this work, extended sets of stellar evolutionary models for various initial chemical compositions are presented, while other set s with different metallicities and/or different distributions of heavy elements are being computed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolutionary tracks and isochrones for low- and intermediate-mass stars: From 0.15 to 7 , and from to 0.03

TL;DR: In this article, a large grid of stellar evolution-ary tracks, which are suitable to model star clusters and galaxies by means of population synthesis, is presented for the initial chemical compositions.
