Evaluating GAIA performances on eclipsing binaries
Evaluating GAIA performances on eclipsing binaries
The orbits and physical parameters of three detached, double-lined A-F eclipsing binaries have been derived combining photometry from the Hipparcos/Tycho mission with 8500-8750 Å ground-based spectroscopy, mimicking the photometric+spectroscopic observations that should be obtained by GAIA, the approved Cornerstone 6 mission by ESA. This study has two main objectives, namely …
