Notes. The “ϖexp.” column gives their expected parallax from the renormalized period-luminosity distances by Berdnikov et al. (2000). The “Total” column gives the number of GDR2 field stars with compatible parallaxes that were examined as candidates. The “Vis” column indicates the result of a visual inspection of the field of the considered targets, with ✓ indicating a likely comoving system and – a dubious association. The observational properties and field charts of the Cepheids and their associated candidate companions are presented in Appendix A.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
