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

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

The influence of chemical composition on the properties of Cepheid stars. II - The iron content ⋆

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the stellar iron content on the Cepheid period-luminosity (PL) relation in the V and K bands was investigated and it was shown that metal-rich Cepheids appear to be systematically fainter than metal-poor ones.
Journal ArticleDOI

On a new theoretical framework for rr lyrae stars. i. the metallicity dependence

TL;DR: In this article, a nonlinear, time-dependent convective hydrodynamical model of RR Lyrae stars is presented, assuming a constant helium-to-metal enrichment ratio and a broad range in metal abundances (Z = 0.0001?0.02).
