Kinematics of the Galaxy from Cepheids with proper motions from the Gaia DR1 catalogue

Abstract: The sample of classic Cepheids with known distances and line-of-sight velocities is supplemented by the proper motions from the Gaia DR1 catalog. From spatial velocities of 260 stars the components of the peculiar Solar velocity: (U,V,W)_\odot=(7.90,11.73,7.39)+/-(0.65,0.77,0.62) km/s, parameters of the Galactic rotation curve: \Omega_0 =28.840+/-.33 km/s/kpc, \Omega'_0=-4.05+/-0.10 km/s/kpc^2, \Omega''_0=0.805+/-0.067 km/s/kpc^3 are obtained. For the adopted Galactocentric Solar distance R_0=8 kpc the linear circular velocity of the Local Standard of Rest is found as V_0=231+/-6 km/s.
