Binarity of Hipparcos Main Sequence Survey Stars

Quist, Carl F. and Lindegren, Lennart LU orcid (2001) 200. p.64-64
Abstract
Hipparcos observations of double stars, mainly A and F primaries, aremodelled in order to check the statistics of double-star solutions inthe Hipparcos Catalogue and to set quantitative limits on binarydistributions. The number of companions per primary is estimated to 0.25+/-0.05 for semi-major axes from 1 to 10 AU, and to 0.43 +/-0.20 for therange 10--100 AU. The total multiplicity found is between 0.9 and 1.2.
