Notes. Radii are the FLAME DR3 estimates (see text for how the filling factors R/RR were estimated). The column labelled ΔG lists the field mad_mag_g_fov (median absolute deviation) from table vari_summary.

(a)

This is likely a young star, of ‘Orion-variable’ type (V1540 Cyg).

(b)

This star has been added to the Mira category, despite its Plpv/Pnss ratio vastly different from 1, to illustrate some kind of aliasing problems (see text).

(c)

Doubtful case: significance is only 13 and filling factor is 1.4.
