Vétel Cyril - Gaia
Gaia contributors
Gaia was proposed in 1993 and since then, many people have been involved in the Gaia mission, whether at ESA, at industry side or at one of the institutes involved in the Gaia data processing. The Gaia Data Processing and Analysis Consortium (DPAC) is a collaboration which consists of around 450 scientists and engineers.
The list of Gaia contributors presented here should not be considered a complete representation of the entire consortium and should not be considered as a list of currenly active people on the Gaia mission. A more complete list of Gaia contributors that were involved in the creation of the Gaia catalogues can be obtained from the author lists of the Gaia Collaboration overview papers (for Gaia Data Release 1 see here, for Gaia Data Release 2 see here, for Gaia Early Data Release 3 see here, for the full Gaia Data Release 3 see here, for Gaia Focused Product Release see here). A history of contributions to the Gaia mission can be found from the acknowledgements given with each data release.

Cyril Vétel EADS-Astrium (Toulouse) |
|
Cyril Vétel is a member of the EADS Astrium team in charge of the Gaia "CCD and Focal Plane Technology Demonstrators" where he is responsible for the CCD engineering activities (CCD development, radiation tests and radiation damage modelling). Cyril has been involved in Gaia for many years. Already in 1999 he led a testing programme for performance assessment of an e2v Gaia-like CCD in TDI mode. More recently, he led a Gaia Astro CCD characterisation test campaign at EADS Astrium that provided encouraging centroiding test results in TDI mode (see Picture of the week, 2004-12-20). He is also in charge of one of the two FPA Demonstrators developed by Astrium, the Electro-Optical Demonstrator (FPA EODM), that successfully passed the Test Readiness Review early December 2004 (see news item 2004-12-14).
