Table information for 'gedr3mock.main'

General

Table Description: A synthetic Milky Way catalog mimicking Gaia EDR3 in stellar content and data model.

This table is available for ADQL queries and through the TAP endpoint.

Resource Description: This catalogue is a simulation of the Gaia EDR3 stellar content using Galaxia (a tool to sample stars from a Besancon-like Milky Way model), 3d dust extinction maps and the latest PARSEC Isochrones. It is mimicking the Gaia DR2 data model and an apparent magnitude limit of G=20,7. Extinctions and photometry in different bands have also been included in a supplementary table as well as uncertainty estimates using scaled GDR2 errors. Additional magnitude limit per HEALpix maps are provided, based on the mode in the magnitude distribution of Gaia DR2 data.

Citing this table

This table has an associated publication. If you use data from it, it may be appropriate to reference 2020PASP..132g4501R (ADS BibTeX entry for the publication) either in addition to or instead of the service reference.

To cite the table as such, we suggest the following BibTeX entry:

Table Documentation

Associate Photometry

To add simulated multi-band photometry, join gedr3mock.main with gedr3mock.parsec_props USING (index_parsec).

Uncertainty model

parallax_error, phot_g_mean_mag_error, radial_velocity error were trained on GDR2 data and predicted for the GeDR3mock using G, BP-RP and number of observations (which were trained on GDR2 data using the sky position). Then those uncertainties were scaled to the longer baseline of Gaia EDR3 data, i.e. 34 month. The other photometry and astrometry uncertainties are just linear relations to the ones predicted here. Again GDR2 data was used to best fit those simple relations. This is mainly done due to space limitations.

Coping with the table size

gedr3mock.main is a large table. A sequential scan of it will take about an hour on a machine not otherwise loaded. Therefore, only do queries on the whole table with tested queries that actually yield what you expect them to yield. For development, please restrict yourself to reasonably sized-subsets. The recommended pattern is to use common table expressions (CTEs) like this:

WITH sample AS (
        SELECT * FROM gedr3mock.main
        WHERE distance(ra, dec, 66.73, 75.87)<2)
SELECT ra, dec, 1/parallax
FROM sample
WHERE age BETWEEN 0.2 and 0.3

When extending this kind of query to the whole sky (or other regions), all you need to do is edit the statement after WITH.

Note that CTEs are not yet available on all TAP services. On services that do not have them, you can substitute them with subqueries in many situations.

Preferred form of spatial constraints

Please note that the standard (and fast) pattern for spatial selections is cone-like; you can equivalently write:

WHERE distance(ra, dec, 66.73, 75.87)<2

or:

WHERE 1=CONTAINS(
        POINT(ra, dec),
        CIRCLE(66.73, 75.87, 2))

Both assume ADQL 2.1; in ADQL 2.0 (which still runs on the major Gaia services in early 2019; this form also runs on ADQL 2.1), it's:

WHERE 1=CONTAINS(
        POINT('', ra, dec),
        CIRCLE('', 66.73, 75.87, 2))

Do not use “rectangular” selection ("ra between 1 and 2" or "ra<=2 and ra>=1") – this will be slow and may introduce all kinds of weird effects depending on the coordinate frame.

Chunking the catalog

In some situations, you want to exhaustively partition the catalog. To do that, use the source_id column, which has a healpix number in the upper 29 bits. The following partition will yield chunks of no more than 10 million objects:

Please don't use it to dump the catalog yourself (see Dump of the catalog for that); it might still come in handy if you filter out a large part of the objects but still have more than 20 million matches. Just regularly remove separation points.

The way to use it in python would be to say:

# make svc a TapService object with the right access URL, and then:
for low, high in zip(limits[:-1], limits[1:]):
        partial = svc.run_sync("WITH sample AS ("
                " SELECT * FROM gedr3mock.main"
                " WHERE source_id BETWEEN {} AND {})"
                " <your query against sample here>".format(low, high-1))

RVS magnitudes

These were calculated from the stellar spectra using the nominal RVS passband. As it is uncertain whether this column will be provided in Gaia EDR3 it might still be useful for selection of RVS sample which can be done to the real catalogs by equation 2 and 3 of 2018A&A...616A...1G. This is going to be severely off outside of 0.1<BP-G<1.7 (which only affects a negligible amount objects).

Dump of the catalog

While we strongly recommend that you try to structure your problem so as to make it work through ADQL, for the benefit of those who want to mirror the table or use it in services of their own, we provide a dump of the data in the form of FITS binary tables files; warning: pulling it transfers about 400 gigabytes, and dealing with this data volume is nontrivial.

Having said that: The dump files are available from http://dc.zah.uni-heidelberg.de/gedr3mock/q/download.

If you would like to split the dump into more manageable chunks, use something like:

zcat dump.gz | split -a4 -l 5000 -d - part

The last digits of the source_id are reserved for a running number that serves as a unique identifier per HEALPix cell. This is formed in accordance with Gaia's source_id definition, but of course mock objects have no relation to any Gaia objects that may have an identical source_id. N/A meta.id;meta.main

phot_rp_mean_mag Mag RP Mean magnitude in the integrated RP band. This is computed from the RP-band mean flux applying the magnitude zero-point in the Vega scale. No error is provided for this quantity as the error distribution is only symmetric in flux space.

phot_bp_rp_excess_factor BP/RP excess BP/RP excess factor estimated from the comparison of the sum of integrated BP and RP fluxes with respect to the flux in the G band. This measures the excess of flux in the BP and RP integrated photometry with respect to the G band. This excess is believed to be caused by background and contamination issues affecting the BP and RP data. Therefore a large value of this factor for a given source indicates systematic errors in the BP and RP photometry. N/A stat.fit.goodness

[NULL] Colour of the source assumed in the final astrometric processing, given as he effective wavenumber of the photon flux distribution in the astrometric (G) band. The value given in this field was astrometrically determined in a preliminary solution, using the chromatic displacement of image centroids calibrated by means of the effective wavenumbers (ν_eff) of primary sources calculated from BP and RP magnitudes.

The value given in this field is typically in the range [−0.23, +0.32] (1st and 99th percentiles). A value outside this range indicates a distribution of observations that is unfavourable for the determination of the parallax, and the calculated parallax could then be more vulnerable to errors, e.g. from the calibration model, not reflected in the formal uncertainties.
