1301.4366 (E. Pancino et al.)

Globular clusters seen by Gaia    [PDF]

E. Pancino, M. Bellazzini, S. Marinoni
We present a simulation of twelve globular clusters with different concentration, distance, and background population, whose properties are transformed into Gaia observables with the help of the lates Gaia science performances prescriptions. We adopt simplified crowding receipts, based on five years of simulations performed by DPAC (Data Processing and Analysis Consortium) scientists, to explore the effect of crowding and to give a basic idea of what will be made possible by Gaia in the field of Galactic globular clusters observations.
