Percent of stellar companions detectable within our speckle images vs. distance. Circles color-coded by G magnitude represent the detectability of simulated companions at all separations. Open black circles represent the detectability of simulated companions specifically within 100 au. We find that the majority of potential stellar companions would be detectable, particularly for the nearby targets, with a median value of 73.2%. Specifically, within 100 au we find that 70.3% of simulated companions are recovered.
