Abstract: Gaia-ESO is a large public spectroscopic survey carried out with FLAMES, targeting ≥ 105,000 stars, systematically covering all major components of the Milky Way, from halo to star-forming regions, providing the first homogeneous overview of the distributions of kinematics and elemental abundances. The MW targets survey the Bulge, Halo, Thick Disc and Thin Disc populations of the Milky Way. Three primary instrumental setups were used for these observations: UVES 580 for brighter objects and Giraffe HR10 and HR21 for fainter ones. For the Bulge survey observations of K giants were carried out for the brighter objects (GK stars) using UVES 580, otherwise Giraffe HR10 and/or HR21 were used. For the Halo/Thick disc survey, the primary targets are F+G stars, where bluer fainter F stars probe the halo, and brighter F/G stars probe the thick disc. The outer thick disc is probed using distant F/G stars, as well as K giants to sample the far outer disc. For the solar neighbourhood, G stars were observed using UVES 580 only.
Other: This is a dynamic dataset; it is growing as new data is added. The DOI refers to the newest available dataset.
