Close-up of the distribution of the expected contamination, , on the radial velocity, |RVCt|, of a target star of spectral type a) G2, b) G8, c) K0, d) K5, e) M1, and f) M3, and at distance d, caused by a background or a companion star. The green thick solid line shows the distribution if the target star stands at a distance of d = 1 pc, the blue dotted line for d = 5 pc, black dashed line for d = 10 pc, magenta dash-dotted line for d = 50 pc, and red solid line for 100 pc. Numbers in each bin correspond to the impact probability for each target distance: the number in the top corresponds to 1 pc and the number in the bottom to 100 pc.
