Caption: Figure 6.
Left: posteriors on the occurrence rate of close (<200 mas, pink) vs. wide (≥200 mas, blue) companions, assuming the stellar accretion scaling. As in Figure 5, the legend provides the median and 16th and 84th percentiles, also marked by filled circles on the posteriors. Here, we consider the three confirmed companions, one of which is “close” (HD 142527 B) and two of which are “wide” (PDS 70 c and HD 100453 B). Right: posterior on the difference in planet occurrence rate at close vs. wide separations, fp,close − fp,wide; positive values (shaded in pink) indicate close companions are more common.
