Observed present-day system mass function of the Pleiades within the central 3° radius (red). Chabrier (2005) model for the galactic disk mass function (normalized to the same total mass over the range 0.03–0.6 M_⊙) and Thies & Kroupa (2007) prediction for the Pleiades cluster are overplotted in blue and green, respectively, and normalized to the same total mass over the range 0.03–0.6 M_⊙. The “gap” between the Tycho-2 and DANCe analyses and the estimated limit of completeness of the DANCe survey are indicated by shaded areas.
