Abstract:
Context: This study has been developed in the framework of the
computational simulations that are executed for the preparation
of the ESA Gaia astrometric mission.
Aims: We focus on describing the objects and characteristics that
Gaia will potentially observe without taking into consideration
instrumental effects (detection efficiency, observing errors).
Methods: The theoretical Universe Model prepared for the Gaia
simulation has been statistically analysed at a given time.
Ingredients of the model are described, with the greatest emphasis on
the stellar content, the double and multiple stars, and variability.
Results: In this simulation the errors have not yet been included.
Hence we estimated the number of objects and their theoretical
photometric, astrometric and spectroscopic characteristics if they
are perfectly detected.We show that Gaia will be able to potentially
observe 1.1 billion of stars (single or part of multiple star systems)
of which about 2% are variable stars and 3% have one or two
exoplanets. At the extragalactic level, observations will be
potentially composed of several millions of galaxies, half a million
to 1 million quasars and about 50,000 supernovae that will occur
during the five years of the mission.
Description:
GUMS-10 is the 10th version of the Gaia Universe Model Snapshot, a
simulation of the expected contents of the Gaia catalogue run at
the MareNostrum supercomputer. The simulated catalogue will be made
publicly available by the DPAC on the Gaia portal of the ESA web site
