Notes. We present the total number of stars used in the comparison (Nb) as well as the percentage of outliers excluded (at 5σ, in violet if higher than 10%) as well as the median G of the sample. The parallax differences (ϖGϖE, in mas), the parallax difference with the correction of Lindegren et al. (2021a) applied (ϖcor) and the unit-weight uncertainty (uwu) that needs to be applied to the uncertainties to adjust the differences are indicated in violet when they are significant (p-value limit: 0.01) and higher than 10 μas for the parallax difference and 10% for the uwu. For the HIPPARCOS catalogue, in addition to the uwu, a systematic uncertainty of 0.5 mas has yet to be quadratically added.
