Objective:

Parameterised post Newtonian parameter determination with Gaia / distances: investigate various crucial steps of the cosmic ladder from the very local to the 100 Mpc universe that will greatly benefit from Gaia. The complementary expertise of the various nodes will be integrated in order to provide an accurate calibration of primary and secondary distance indicators / transients / investigate the requirements on observation and source modelling for sub-as astrometry

Tasks:

  • WGT4a: Reference frames and Fundamental physics with Gaia.
  • WGT4b: Gravitation Waves with Gaia.
  • WGT4c: Calibrating the distance scale.
  • WGT4d: The transient sky with Gaia.
