· Brief Description of Dataset (Click here to see more details.):

      This catalogue is the only complete list of all known double and multiple systems (18644) of which at least one component was identified in the Hipparcos final catalog in July 1997 (Cat. <I/239>), including the 2994 systems newly discovered by the satellite, as well as the 155 new astrometric orbital pairs also discovered by the satellite (Dommanget, 2000Obs...120..202D), and also the 38 new astrometric binaries components of known systems. It may be considered as a subset of the CCDM as existing in 1998 of which a first edition appeared in 1994 (Cat. <I/211>), and of which a second edition containing more than 45,000 systems is being prepared for publication. Consequently, the format of this list is that of the CCDM for which all information may be found in the introduction of its 1994 published version (as file I/211/ccdm.doc)
