GAIA Survey of Galactic Eclipsing Binaries
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
The general importance and capabilities of observations of eclipsing binaries by the forthcoming ESA mission GAIA are discussed. Availability of spectroscopic observations and a large number of photometric bands on board will make it possible to reliably determine physical parameters for ∼ 105 binary stars. It is stressed that current methods of object by object analysis will have to be modified and included in an automatic analysis pipeline.
