Database on Binaries among Galactic Classical Cepheids
Abstract
A new website has been created containing data on Galactic Cepheids belonging to binary and multiple systems. The binary Cepheids are key objects for determining the zero-point of the period-luminosity relationship. Information and links in this database facilitate the correction to be performed when using these individual Cepheids for calibration purposes.
