Table A.2:
For those stars for which we have a parallax obtained by
Hipparcos, we derive the distance D (pc) and the luminosity L(
)
based on that parallax. In the second part of the
table, distance and luminosity estimates are given based on the P-L
relation of Alcock et al. (1998). Periods P (days) are from SIMBAD and
bolometric corrections
from Bessell et al. (1998). The luminosity
L (in
)
and the distance D (in kpc) are given
together with the estimated errors. Where we don't have a pulsation
period, distances are estimated based on a luminosity of
