Kiefer, et al. (2025) presented a catalogue of candidate planets from Gaia proper motion anomaly and RUWE astrometric noise. They're overwhelmingly pretty massive, and the authors themselves estimate that only a few percent of them will turn out to be genuine planets, as opposed to brown dwarf or stellar companions. Any systems already in this catalogue addon (and in the
multiple star systems addon) which have new candidate companions from this paper will have these companions in these files. The rest of them -- the
vast majority of them -- have been placed in separate .ssc and .stc files. There's a lot of "Gaia DRn" identifiers in there, so it can impact performance when you search for anything starting with a 'G.' I'm sure you have noticed this phenomenon with the TOI and TIC identifiers slowing down searches for thiings that start with 'T'. There are six pairs of Gaia DRn identifiers that are likely members of the same stellar system, where both have new Gaia companions, representing binary systems where both stellar components have new companions. But having only Gaia DRn identifiers, the
system doesn't have a name, so I've not bothered with the effort of reprenting them with names having an 'A' or 'B' at the end.
- Gaia candidate companions from Kiefer+ (2025).
With these companion candidates being as numerous as they are, with them having only lower limits to their masses, and with the overwhelming majority of them likely to turn out to be stellar companions, I've kept them in a separate file and won't be including their numbers in the total planet tallies here.
