摘要:

作为Gaia DR 1数据处理的一部分,计算了一个特殊的天体测量解,即所谓的辅助类星体解。这给出了选定的河外天体的位置,包括国际天体参考系(ICRF 2)第二次实现中的射电源,这些射电源具有足够明亮的光学对应物,可以与盖亚一起观察。这些位置的子集用于将Gaia DR 1的位置参考系与ICRF 2对齐。我们描述的盖亚辅助类星体的解决方案的一个子集的源匹配ICRF 2的属性,并比较它们的光学和无线电的位置在亚质量水平。50%的源的形式标准误差优于0.76毫角秒(mas),90%的源的形式标准误差优于3.35毫角秒。光学星等是在盖亚未过滤的光度G波段获得的。与定义源的无线电位置的比较表明,系统差异不大于零点几个mas。有问题的解决方案的分数,不容易占统计,是小于6%。标准化的差异延长了尾部,需要对大约100个源进行逐案调查,但我们还没有看到任何与源中的光无线电偏移有关的差异。

英文摘要:

As part of the data processing for Gaia Data Release~1 (Gaia DR1) a special astrometric solution was computed, the so-called auxiliary quasar solution. This gives positions for selected extragalactic objects, including radio sources in the second realisation of the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF2) that have optical counterparts bright enough to be observed with Gaia. A subset of these positions was used to align the positional reference frame of Gaia DR1 with the ICRF2. We describe the properties of the Gaia auxiliary quasar solution for a subset of sources matched to ICRF2, and compare their optical and radio positions at the sub-mas level. Their formal standard errors are better than 0.76~milliarcsec (mas) for 50% of the sources and better than 3.35~mas for 90%. Optical magnitudes are obtained in Gaia's unfiltered photometric G band. The comparison with the radio positions of the defining sources shows no systematic differences larger than a few tenths of a mas. The fraction of questionable solutions, not readily accounted for by the statistics, is less than 6%. Normalised differences have extended tails requiring case-by-case investigations for around 100 sources, but we have not seen any difference indisputably linked to an optical-radio offset in the sources.
