Caption: Figure 3.
Probability of an unbound star being detected within the search radius of 3.″15 for each observed TESS planet candidate as a function of Galactic latitude, based on Gaia DR2 stellar counts. Each target is colored by the limiting magnitude of detectable nearby stars in the SOAR speckle observations. The latitude range of the primary Kepler mission is indicated for reference. We expect approximately three unbound stars in total to be detected near the TESS planet candidates.
