It is based on the fact, that all stars cross the disk plane several times during their Galactic orbital period. ... We have used our representative sample of nearby disk F2-G2 stars Marsakov & Shevelev (1995) in which fundamental stellar parameters was determined on the basis of published date on uvby-photometry, proper motion and radial velocities. ...

As discussed above (Section  6 ), galactic binary systems are assumed to be distributed logarithmically along their semi-major axis A (Abt and Levy, 1976[ 2 ]), . ... Figure 40: Number of binary stars per frequency decade. ... As the observed distribution of binary periods is flat (equation ( 15.3.1 )), the normalization constant is the total number of galactic binaries per frequency decade: . ...

... The distribution of galactic RCB stars is controversial. Several authors have argued that they belong to a thick galactic disk, and are thus old Population I stars. ... However, their distribution and space velocities suggest they may alternatively belong to the even older galactic bulge (Population II, [ Drilling 1986 ]). ... These are the only RCB stars for which a distance is known and hence for which an absolute magnitude can be deduced. ...
