Fig. 2.
Luminosity function F(MG), describing the number density of stars in the solar neighbourhood, as a function of absolute magnitude in the GaiaG-band. The solid lines are the binned data and the spline function F(MG). The dashed lines correspond to the absolute magnitude bounds by which the four data samples are constructed. The function is not normalised and need not be.
