Abstract
AbstractWe use 3D radiative-hydrodynamics simulations of convection with CO5BOLD and the post-processing radiative transfer code Optim3D to compute intensity maps in the Gaia G band [325–1030 nm]. We calculate the intensity-weighted mean of all emitting points tiling the visible stellar surface (i.e., the photo-center) and evaluate its motion as a function of time. We show that the convection-related variability accounts for a substantial part to the Gaia DR2 parallax error of our sample of semiregular variables. Finally, we denote that Gaia parallax variations could be exploited quantitatively to extract stellar parameters using appropriate RHD simulations corresponding to the observed star.
