- Description:
- The HPMS3 catalog is a comprehensive list of 90455 stars south of the J2000 celestial equator that have proper motions larger than 150mas/yr. The catalog has been generated as counter-part of the I/298 LSPM-North Catalog by systematic search for high proper motion stars in the GAIA DR2 catalog (Cat. I/345) with Dec<0. The HPMS3 catalog considerably expands the number of high proper motion stars over the existing high proper motion SIMBAD objects in the southern sky by about a factor 2.5. We also provide an estimated V magnitude for all catalog entries mostly calculated from GAIA G-, B- and R-magnitudes. The catalog is estimated to be over 99% complete down to a magnitude V=20 with a gap of about 300 to 400 very high (larger than 600mas/yr) proper motion stars not covered by GAIA DR2. The catalog was cross-matched with other catalogs (2MASS, UCAC4, PS1 and GAIA DR1) and then searched for pairs with a separation of up to 60-arcseconds. 4412 such pairs were identified and assessed for common proper motion and potential gravitational relationship. These pairs were then cross-matched with the Washington Double Star catalog to identify double stars already known resulting in 1623 matches. From the rest we eliminated all pairs with potentially suspect data, especially objects with negative parallaxes or parallaxes smaller than 3 times the given Plx error. In the next steps we eliminated all pairs with parallaxes too different to allow for gravitational relationship considered to be optical even if proper motion data suggested common proper motion pairs. Finally 721 pairs remained considered to be most probably physical pairs or multiples by means of common proper motion and potential gravitational relationship. Additionally 215 pairs with slightly different proper motion data are also considered probably physical as minor differences in proper motion values are probably caused by orbits overlapping the proper motion of the double or multiple star system.

- Hipparcos astrometry for 257 stars
- Short Name:

- Description:
- We present improved Hipparcos astrometry for 257 Hipparcos stars, resolved into 342 components. For 64 of the stars no astrometry was obtained in the Hipparcos Catalogue, while for the remaining stars additional components have been added by this solution or the positions have been revised considerably. We have used the published Hipparcos transit data for the new solutions, together with results from the second reduction of the Tycho data for defining better initial values.

- Hipparcos calibration of the TRGB

- Description:
- We have detected the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) in the solar neighborhood using near-infrared photometry from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (II/246) and DIRBE (J/ApJS/154/673) catalogs, and revised Hipparcos parallaxes. We confirm that the revised Hipparcos parallaxes are superior to the original ones, and that this improvement is necessary to detect the TRGB. We find a tip absolute magnitude of M_K_=-6.85+/-0.03, in agreement with that expected from previous tip measurements of the Large Magellanic Cloud, Small Magellanic Cloud, and Bulge. This represents the first geometric calibration of the TRGB and extends previous calibrations, based on metal-poor globular clusters, to solar metallicities. We attempted to use the TRGB to confirm the presence of the Lutz-Kelker bias, with inconclusive results. Attempts to detect the tip in the I band also produced inconsistent results, due to a lack of precise, homogeneous photometry for these bright stars.

- Hipparcos-Gaia (EDR3) Catalog of Accelerations
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present a cross-calibration of Hipparcos and Gaia EDR3 intended to identify astrometrically accelerating stars and to fit orbits to stars with faint, massive companions. The resulting catalog, the EDR3 edition of the Hipparcos-Gaia Catalog of Accelerations (HGCA), provides three proper motions with calibrated uncertainties on the EDR3 reference frame: the Hipparcos proper motion, the Gaia EDR3 proper motion, and the long-term proper motion given by the difference in position between Hipparcos and Gaia EDR3. Our approach is similar to that for the Gaia DR2 edition of the HGCA but offers a factor of ~3 improvement in precision thanks to the longer time baseline and improved data processing of Gaia EDR3. We again find that a 60/40 mixture of the two Hipparcos reductions outperforms either reduction individually, and we find strong evidence for locally variable frame rotations between all pairs of proper motion measurements. The substantial global frame rotation seen in DR2 proper motions has been removed in EDR3. We also correct for color- and magnitude-dependent frame rotations at a level of up to ~50{mu}as/yr in Gaia EDR3. We calibrate the Gaia EDR3 uncertainties using a sample of radial velocity standard stars without binary companions; we find an error inflation factor (a ratio of total to formal uncertainty) of 1.37. This is substantially lower than the position-dependent factor of ~1.7 found for Gaia DR2 and reflects the improved data processing in EDR3. While the catalog should be used with caution, its proper motion residuals provide a powerful tool to measure the masses and orbits of faint, massive companions to nearby stars.

- Hipparcos parallaxes of O stars

- Description:
- We compare the absolute visual magnitude of the majority of bright O stars in the sky as predicted from their spectral type with the absolute magnitude calculated from their apparent magnitude and the Hipparcos parallax. We find that many stars appear to be much fainter than expected, up to five magnitudes. We find no evidence for a correlation between magnitude differences and the stellar rotational velocity as suggested for OB stars by Lamers et al. (1997A&A...325L..25L), whose small sample of stars is partly included in ours.

- Hipparcos, the New Reduction
- Short Name:
- I/311
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- A new reduction of the astrometric data as produced by the Hipparcos mission has been published, claiming accuracies for nearly all stars brighter than magnitude Hp=8 to be better, by up to a factor 4, than in the original catalogue. The new Hipparcos astrometric catalogue is checked for the quality of the data and the consistency of the formal errors as well as the possible presence of error correlations. The differences with the earlier publication are explained. Methods. The internal errors are followed through the reduction process, and the external errors are investigated on the basis of a comparison with radio observations of a small selection of stars, and the distribution of negative parallaxes. Error correlation levels are investigated and the reduction by more than a factor 10 as obtained in the new catalogue is explained. Results. The formal errors on the parallaxes for the new catalogue are confirmed. The presence of a small amount of additional noise, though unlikely, cannot be ruled out. Conclusions. The new reduction of the Hipparcos astrometric data provides an improvement by a factor 2.2 in the total weight compared to the catalogue published in 1997, and provides much improved data for a wide range of studies on stellar luminosities and local galactic kinematics.

- Hipparcos Variability-Induced Movers
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Hipparcos observations of some variable stars, and especially of long-period (e.g. Mira) variables, reveal a motion of the photocenter correlated with the brightness variation (variability-induced mover, VIM), suggesting the presence of a binary companion. A re-analysis of the Hipparcos photometric and astrometric data (Cat. <I/239>) does not confirm the VIM solution for 62 among the 288 VIM objects (21%) in the Hipparcos catalogue. Most of these 288 VIMs are long-period (e.g. Mira) variables (LPV). The effect of a revised chromaticity correction, which accounts for the color variations along the light cycle, was then investigated. It is based on "instantaneous" V-I color indices derived from Hipparcos and Tycho-2 (Cat. <I/259>) epoch photometry. Among the 188 LPVs flagged as VIM in the Hipparcos catalogue, 89 (47%) are not confirmed as VIM after this improved chromaticity correction is applied. This dramatic decrease in the number of VIM solutions is not surprising, since the chromaticity correction applied by the Hipparcos reduction consortia was based on a fixed V-I color. Astrophysical considerations lead us to adopt a more stringent criterion for accepting a VIM solution (first-kind risk of 0.27% instead of 10% as in the Hipparcos catalogue). With this more severe criterion, only 27 LPV stars remain VIM, thus rejecting 161 of the 188 (86%) of the LPVs defined as VIMs in the Hipparcos catalogue.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- A sample consisting of 570 binary systems is compiled from several sources of visual binary stars with well-known orbital elements. High-precision trigonometric parallaxes (mean relative error about 5%) and proper motions (mean relative error about 3%) are extracted from the Hipparcos Catalogue or from the reprocessed Hipparcos data. However, 13% of the sample stars lack radial velocity measurements. Computed galactic velocity components and other kinematic parameters are used to divide the sample stars into kinematic age groups. The majority (89%) of the sample stars, with known radial velocities, are the thin disk stars, 9.5% binaries have thick disk kinematics and only 1.4% are halo stars. 85% of thin disk binaries are young or medium age stars and almost 15% are old thin disk stars. There is an urgent need to increase the number of the identified halo binary stars with known orbits and substantially improve the situation with their radial velocity data.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This paper continues kinematical investigation of the Hipparcos visual binaries with known orbits. A sample, consisting of 804 binary systems with orbital elements determined from ground-based observations, is selected. The mean relative error of their parallaxes is about 12% and the mean relative error of proper motions is about 4%. However, even 41% of the sample stars lack radial velocity measurements. The computed Galactic velocity components and other kinematical parameters are used to divide the stars with known radial velocities into kinematical age groups. The majority (92%) of binaries from the sample are thin disk stars, 7.6% have thick disk kinematics and only two binaries have halo kinematics. Among them, the long-period variable Mira Ceti has a very discordant Hipparcos and ground-based parallax values. From the whole sample, 60 stars are ascribed to the thick disk and halo population. There is an urgent need to increase the number of the identified halo binaries with known orbits and substantially improve the situation with radial velocity data for stars with known orbits.

- Description:
- The mass-luminosity relation for late-type stars has long been a critical tool for estimating stellar masses. However, there is growing need for both a higher-precision relation and a better understanding of systematic effects (e.g., metallicity). Here we present an empirical relationship between M_Ks_ and M_*_ spanning 0.075M_{sun}_<M_*_<0.70M_{sun}_. The relation is derived from 62 nearby binaries, whose orbits we determine using a combination of near infra-red (Keck/NIRC2) imaging, archival adaptive optics data, and literature astrometry. From their orbital parameters, we determine the total mass of each system, with a precision better than 1% in the best cases. We use these total masses, in combination with resolved Ks magnitudes and system parallaxes, to calibrate the M_Ks_-M_*_ relation. The resulting posteriors can be used to determine masses of single stars with a precision of 2%-3%, which we confirm by testing the relation on stars with individual dynamical masses from the literature. The precision is limited by scatter around the best-fit relation beyond measured M_*_ uncertainties, perhaps driven by intrinsic variation in the M_Ks_-M_*_ relation or underestimated uncertainties in the input parallaxes. We find that the effect of [Fe/H] on the M_Ks_-M_*_ relation is likely negligible for metallicities in the solar neighborhood (0.0%{+/-}2.2% change in mass per dex change in [Fe/H]). This weak effect is consistent with predictions from the Dartmouth Stellar Evolution Database, but inconsistent with those from modules for experiments in stellar astrophysics (MESA) Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST) (at 5{sigma}). A sample of binaries with a wider range of abundances will be required to discern the importance of metallicity in extreme populations (e.g., in the Galactic halo or thick disk).
