Selecting fast rotators (Prot < 13 days) enhances the visibility of clustered populations. Left: distribution in Galactocentric X- and Y-coordinates of all stars in the TARS target list satisfying T  <  16 and d  <  500 pc. The Sun is marked as a yellow point at the origin. Right: the same sky region, restricted to stars with adopted rotation periods Prot < 13 days. After applying this cut, clustered populations become more prominent.
