摘要:

我们结合了第一次盖亚数据发布的光谱距离估计框架的恒星在第五RAVE调查数据发布。组合的距离估计比单独确定的距离更准确-不确定性平均比RAVE距离小两倍(矮星小三倍),比TGAS视差不确定性小1.4倍(巨星小两倍)。我们还能够将分光光度法的估计值与盖亚的估计值进行比较,并利用这一点来评估两个星表的可靠性,并改进我们的距离估计值。我们发现,最低log g星的距离,平均而言,高估和警告,他们可能不可靠。我们还发现,它是可能的盖亚随机不确定性小于报告的值。作为一个副产品,我们得出了RAVE恒星的年龄,许多恒星的相对不确定性小于20%。这些结果为219566 RAVE源已公开,我们鼓励他们使用的研究相结合的径向速度由RAVE提供的自行盖亚。我们认为可靠的样本可以通过只取旗帜通知flag_any=0的星星来找到

英文摘要:

We combine parallaxes from the first Gaia data release with the spectrophotometric distance estimation framework for stars in the fifth RAVE survey data release. The combined distance estimates are more accurate than either determination in isolation - uncertainties are on average two times smaller than for RAVE-only distances (three times smaller for dwarfs), and 1.4 times smaller than TGAS parallax uncertainties (two times smaller for giants). We are also able to compare the estimates from spectrophotometry to those from Gaia, and use this to assess the reliability of both catalogues and improve our distance estimates. We find that the distances to the lowest log g stars are, on average, overestimated and caution that they may not be reliable. We also find that it is likely that the Gaia random uncertainties are smaller than the reported values. As a byproduct we derive ages for the RAVE stars, many with relative uncertainties less than 20 percent. These results for 219566 RAVE sources have been made publicly available, and we encourage their use for studies that combine the radial velocities provided by RAVE with the proper motions provided by Gaia. A sample that we believe to be reliable can be found by taking only the stars with the flag notification flag_any=0
