Тема: Absolute astrometry in the next 50 years

Dear colleagues,
Herewith a link to the new version of my report with updates from the last three months, scheduled to be announced at Tue, 17 Feb 2015 01:00:00 GMT.

Høg E. 2015, Absolute astrometry in the next 50 years. Draft
report with updates until
15 February 2015. arxiv.org/abs/1408.2190


I thank you for information and discussion and I invite your comments and contributions:

Most
needed now is to discuss: Calibration of photometric
distances for RGB stars on p.4-5; science cases where the
high-resolution photometry is essential, e.g. double stars and compact objects,
p.8; common proper motion pairs, draft
on p. 13. – You are kindly invited to continue.

A two-page overview is here:

Høg E. 2014a, The Astrometric Foundation of Astrophysics. Abstract
to the Conference Book 2014 of the Danish
Astronomical Society and abstract of a review presentation. arxiv.org/abs/1408.2122


With best regardsd
Erik

ABSTRACT: With
Gaia in orbit since December 2013 it is time to look at the future of
fundamental astrometry and a time frame of 50 years is needed in this
matter. A successsor for Gaia would be more powerful if
designed for launch with Ariane 6. A dozen science
issues for a Gaia successor mission in twenty years are presented and in this
context the possibilities for absolute astrometry with milliarcsecond (mas) or
sub-mas accuracies are discussed. The three powerful techniques: VLBI, the
MICADO camera on the E-ELT, and the LSST are described and documented by
literature references and by an extensive correspondence with leading
astronomers who readily responded with all the information I needed. In brief,
the two Gaia-like missions would provide an astrometric foundation for all
branches of astronomy from the solar system and stellar systems, including
exo-planet systems, to compact galaxies, quasars and dark matter (DM) substructures
by data which cannot be surpassed in the next 50 years.
