Illustrative tests in recovering ℛ from a synthetic {Rsini} set with censoring. The simulations reproduce n = 30 slow-rotator sequence stars in the Pleiades with M ~ 1 M_⊙ and R ~ 1 R_⊙ at varying censoring levels: (vsini)_lim = 0 (panel a)); 6 (panel b)); 9 (panel c)); 10 (panel d)) km s^-1. Blue and red histograms are used for censored and not-censored data. The kernel density estimate is shown as a thin blue line for not-censored data and as a red thin line for censored data, the function φ corresponding to the given synthetic distribution parameters is plotted as a thick black line and that corresponding to the reconstructed parameter as a thick red line. Histograms are representations of frequency.
