Journal Article
Impact of the Gaia ESA mission on the primary Period–Luminosity Calibrators in the Milky Way: Cepheids and RR Lyrae
2022
Overview
We discuss the impact of Gaia, the cornerstone mission of the European Space Agency (ESA), on the calibration of the period–luminosity and luminosity–metallicity relations of Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars, with specific reference to data published as part of the most recent Gaia releases: Early Data Release 3 (EDR3), on 19 December 2020, and Data Release 3 (DR3) on 13 June 2022. We provide future perspectives for the Gaia mission, including extensions approved by ESA and a tentative schedule of the data releases that will take place in the next few years. We briefly present plans for cross-Coordination Unit processing of Gaia data of Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars for DR4 and conclude by outlining the expected improvement in astrometry at the end of the extended Gaia mission, which will help to further strengthen the calibration of the first rung of the cosmic distance ladder.
