Description
In this work, we study the structure of the outer Galactic disk up to Galactocentric distance R=20 kpc. We use the Gaia DR2 data on which we apply a deconvolution technique in the parallax errors. We recover for each line of sight the distribution of stars as a function of distance, which we use to construct density maps, that we analyze. We study structural features of the outer Galactic disk, mainly the warp.

    In-flight observations during the cruise phase of HyperScout-H instrument of ESA/Hera mission
    The HyperScout-H hyperspectral imager (HS-H) is one of the payloads aboard ESA's Hera spacecraft, launched in October 7, 2024. It is produced by cosine* and its primary objective is to provide a detailed characterization of the near-Earth binary asteroid system (65803) Didymos-Dimorphos, following the impact of NASA's DART mission [1, 2]. HS-H is a
