Abstract: |
The core data reduction for the Nano-JASMINE mission is planned to be
done with Gaia's Astrometric Global Iterative Solution
(AGIS). Nano-JASMINE is an ultra small (35 kg) satellite for
astrometry observations in Japan and Gaia is ESA”s large (over 1000
kg) next-generation astrometry mission. The accuracy of Nano-JASMINE
is about 3 mas, comparable to the Hipparcos mission,
Gaia”s predecessor some 20 years ago. It is challenging that such a
small satellite can perform real scientific observations. The
collaboration for sharing software started in 2007. In addition to
similar design and operating principles of the two missions, this is
possible thanks to the encapsulation of all Gaia-specific aspects of
AGIS in a Parameter Database. Nano-JASMINE will be the test bench for
the Gaia AGIS software. We present this idea in detail and the
necessary practical steps to make AGIS work with Nano-JASMINE data. We
also show the key mission parameters, goals, and status of the data
reduction for the Nano-JASMINE. |
