Mock catalogue repositories

We have made publicly available the full mock catalogues based on the cosmological simulations of Milky Way-like galaxies with Eagle, used in the Mateu et al (2017).

The Aquarius and HYDRO-zoom mock catalogues are stored in the following public repositories:

1. Aquarius Mocks - Hosted at the ICC, Durham University

2. HYDRO-zoom Mocks - Hosted at ARI, LJMU

The catalogues contain for each 'Halo' and tracer stats (KIII/RR Lyrae):

• Full Halo Gaia mocks - containing all Gaia observable stars (G<20)

• Candidate stream mocks - containing only the stars associated to each of the stream candidates identified with the nGC3 method in Mateu et al 2017

For more details on how the mock catalogues were produced and Gaia errors simulated, please see Mateu et al. 2017.

The original homepage of the Mock Gaia catalogues is here.
