Notes. Number and frequency of possible isolated stars relative to nearby clusters, OB associations and massive stars and given the threshold distance of dthresh, 1 = 74 pc and dthresh, 2 = 204 pc. Method 1 only takes the de-projected positions of stars, star clusters and OB associations into account, while method 2 considers stellar groups whose age difference to the star is 5 Myr at most. The frequencies are normalized to the total sample of stars.
