The thick disc according to Gaia-ESO
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 March 2018
Abstract
In the era of large spectroscopic surveys, it is vital that selection effects are taken into account when making conclusions about the stellar populations of the Galaxy. Here we use the Galactic disc sample of stars from the Gaia-ESO Survey internal data release 4 (GES iDR4), applying the published selection function to characterise the vertical extent of the chemically defined thick and thin discs.
