This regularly updated website was created in an attempt to give an overall
list of RR Lyraes which exhibit (or are suspected to exhibit) the
Blazhko effect. This list is named BlaSGalF, which is an abbreviation
of Blazhko Stars of the Galactic Field. The tables contain only bright Galactic
Blazhko stars. Stars located in the galactic bulge, LMC, SMC, in globular clusters, or observed by the OGLE, LINEAR, and Catalina surveys are not
included. Values given in tables come from available literature. Updating of the
contents and values is based on regular checking of new publications.
For each star the name, coordinates, type, magnitude range, pulsation period,
Blazhko period and references are given.
Blazhko stars are divided into three groups according to the type of
modulation. Just below the title you can find three links - stars with one
Blazhko period
(sorted by RA
and
sorted by constellation, this table
contains the majority of modulated RR Lyraes),
Stars with changing Blazhko period
(modulation period is not a constant)
and
Stars with multiple Blazhko period
(table with stars with more than one modulation period).

References to all resources
takes you to the list with publications from which the values were taken.
