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 Seventh Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Kevork N. Abazajian, +223 more
TL;DR: A series of improvements to the spectroscopic reductions are described, including better flat fielding and improved wavelength calibration at the blue end, better processing of objects with extremely strong narrow emission lines, and an improved determination of stellar metallicities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gaia Data Release 1 Summary of the astrometric, photometric, and survey properties

Anthony G. A. Brown, +590 more
TL;DR: The first Gaia data release, Gaia DR1 as discussed by the authors, consists of three components: a primary astrometric data set which contains the positions, parallaxes, and mean proper motions for about 2 million of the brightest stars in common with the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 catalogues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating Distance from Parallaxes. IV. Distances to 1.33 Billion Stars in Gaia Data Release 2

TL;DR: In this article, a weak distance prior is used to estimate the distances to all 1.33 billion stars with parallaxes published in the second Gaia data release, and the uncertainty in the distance estimate is characterized by the lower and upper bounds of an asymmetric confidence interval.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating distances from parallaxes IV: Distances to 1.33 billion stars in Gaia Data Release 2

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a weak distance prior that varies smoothly as a function of Galactic longitude and latitude according to a Galaxy model to infer distances to essentially all 1.33 billion stars with parallaxes published in the second Gaia data release.
