What Gaia will observe: the Gaia Simulator (GUMS and GOG) Scientific challenges: some examples
For WHT For WHT FoV = 2o MOS + mIFU + LIFU R= 5k, ~1000 fibres V=20 (R=5k, SNR=10, 1h) R= 20k from grating change V=16 (R=20k, SNR=50, 1h) = 0.37-1.00 μm Status: Concept Study, 01/2011, first Science Case completed 2/2012 03/2011 ASTRONET partners recommend North(WHT)+South(ESO) MOS 06/2011 UK, NL commit funding for WEAVE to PDR (expected 2013) 2016: Instrument First Light
Formation scenarios for Galactic stellar halo. In-situ or accreted? Formation scenarios for Galactic stellar halo. In-situ or accreted? - Total mass of the Milky Way out to 200 kpc
- The shape of the Galactic gravitational potential within 50–100 kpc
- Lumpiness of the Galactic dark matter distribution within 20–50 kpc
The dynamics of the Galactic disk & chemical labeling Galactic open clusters
Provides: Is based on: - A model of the Gaia instruments
- Error models provided by the CUs (DPAC) (final Gaia data will be more complex)
Has two main simulation modes :
