Gaia astrometric accuracy
Basic Principles
Scanning law Scanning Space Astrometry: to transform positional information into timing data
Scanning Space Astrometry: Red Photometer CCDs Blue Photometer CCDs 42, 35 cm to transform positional information into timing data Radial Velocity Spectrometer CCDs
Absolute parallaxes Obtained from differential along-scan measurements between the two Fo. V. The error depend on the Γ angle (0. 5 μas accuracy) Parallactic displacement along the great cicle Sun-Star Sensitivity AL is proportional to sin ξ sin Γ ξ = Sun-spin axis angle = 45º for Gaia Γ = basic angle = 106. 5º for Gaia Optimal values between astrometry requirements - that call for a large angle - and implementation constraints - such as payload shading and solar array efficiency
Instrumental calibration Each CCD: -calibrated geometrically -Calibrated photometrically Chromaticity correction: Asymmetric aberrations, the diffraction image of Gaia is wavelength-dependent. The polychromatic image centroid is shifted: - aberration (Fo. V position) - Source SED (BP, RP spectra)
Reduction Strategy

Gaia and the distance scale
1912: Henrietta Leavitt discovered the key for the distance scale of the Universe Period-Luminosity relation (25 cepheids in the SMC) 33
The Cepheids Gaia will observe ~9000 Cepheids (extrapolated from Berdnikov et al. cat) Gaia: Metallicity dependence of the PL relation Windmark et al. , 2011
Hipparcos suspected binarity in Cepheids ~ 50 % binaries, the companion star affect the brightness and motion Gaia will treat several of them as binaries (astrometric orbit) Hipparcos: no allowance for binarity, thus the motion along the orbital arc could falsify the deduced parallax value. It is remarkable that all negative parallax values plotted in the figure belong to known binaries (open clicles). Hipparcos vs. 'ground-based' parallax (Laszlo Szabados, 2010)
