Cooler than Gaia: Parallaxes of Ultracool Objects with WISE

open access: yes, 2018
This project uses the multi-epoch astrometry from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) to demonstrate a method to measure proper motions and trigonometric parallaxes with precisions of ~4 mas yr-1 and ~7 mas, respectively, for low-mass stars ...

Zero-point and external errors of HIPPARCOS parallaxes

open access: yes, 1995
International audienceA good knowledge of both accuracy and precision of the Hipparcos parallaxes is one of the keys for their future scientific use. For this purpose, the Hipparcos preliminary parallaxes, as obtained after the processing of the first 30

Revising the Milky Way Cepheid Calibration: Quantifying and Correcting for Previously Undetected Distance Modulus Errors in the Gaia-based Multiwavelength Period–Luminosity Relations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We examine the multiwavelength period–luminosity–color (PLC) relations for Cepheid variables in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds and the Milky Way.

The solar neighborhood. XVI. parallaxes from ctiopi: final results from the 1.5 m telescope program [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Trigonometric parallaxes, proper motions and VJ (RI )KC photometry are given for 25 stars (of which one is a zeroparallax control field) targeted by the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory Parallax Investigation (CTIOPI), a widely scoped program ...

Parallaxes for Brown Dwarfs in Clusters

open access: yes, 2007
Introduction There is a tendency in the wider astronomical community to view astrometrists in general, and those who measure parallaxes in particular, as musty old fuddy-duddies doing valuable and worthy, if dull, work.

Observational Properties of β Cephei Stars: 88 New Samples Discovered Based on TESS and Gaia Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present a systematic investigation of β Cephei (BCEP) stars by integrating photometric data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) with astrometric parameters from Gaia Data Release 3.
