Individual radial velocity residuals as a function of the Gaia DR2 radial velocity for 24 063 validation stars. Thirty-one validation stars with an absolute value of the radial velocity residual higher than 20 km s−1 are not displayed. The dots extend to higher residuals at low absolute velocities than at higher absolute velocities. This visual effect arises because low absolute velocities are much more densely populated than higher velocities, and therefore the wings ofthe residual distribution are probed to much higher values.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
