The Pristine survey VI. The first three years of medium-resolution follow-up spectroscopy of Pristine EMP star candidates

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard, Carmela Lardo, Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

We present the results of a 3-yr long, medium-resolution spectroscopic campaign aimed at identifying very metal -poor stars from candidates selected with the CaHK, metallicitysensitive Pristine survey. The catalogue consists of a total of 1007 stars, and i ...

The Pristine survey - III. Spectroscopic confirmation of an efficient search for extremely metal-poor stars

Pascale Jablonka, Marc Gentile

The Pristine survey is a narrow-band, photometric survey focused around the wavelength region of the Ca II H&K absorption lines, designed to efficiently search for extremely metal-poor stars. In this work, we use the first results of amedium-resolution spe ...

The Pristine survey - I. Mining the Galaxy for the most metal-poor stars

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We present the Pristine survey, a new narrow-band photometric survey focused on the metallicity-sensitive Ca H&K lines and conducted in the Northern hemisphere with the wide-field imager MegaCam on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. This paper reviews our ...

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

Stephan Morgenthaler, Mikaël Martino, Shuangqing Liao

Context. At about 1000 days after the launch of Gaia we present the first Gaia data release, Gaia DR1, consisting of astrometry and photometry for over 1 billion sources brighter than magnitude 20.7. Aims. A summary of Gaia DR1 is presented along with illu ...

Evaluating the effect of stellar multiplicity on the point spread function of space-based weak lensing surveys

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Thibault Adrien Kuntzer

The next generation of space-based telescopes used for weak lensing surveys will require exquisite point spread function (PSF) determination. Previously negligible effects may become important in the reconstruction of the PSF, in part because of the improv ...

SALSA: a tool to estimate the stray light contamination for low-Earth orbit observatories

Thibault Adrien Kuntzer

Stray light contamination reduces considerably the precision of photometric of faint stars for low altitude space-borne observatories. When measuring faint objects, the necessity of coping with stray light contamination arises in order to avoid systematic ...

A deep proper-motion survey of the nearby open cluster Blanco 1

Jean-Claude Mermilliod

We provide two comprehensive catalogues of positions and proper motions in the area of open cluster Blanco 1. The main catalogue, CtlgM, contains 6271 objects down to V similar to 18.5 and covers a circular similar to 11 deg2 area. The accuracy of CtlgM pr ...

High resolution differential laser interferometry for the VLTI (Very Large Telescope Interferometer)

Olivier Boris Scherler

One method for locating extrasolar planets is to observe the lateral movement of a star in the sky caused by a planet in orbit around it. In order to detect this displacement, the angular position of the star has to be measured with high accuracy. This tec ...
