Notes. Column 1: model name; Column 2: formation efficiency of all Gaia BH3-like systems, as defined by the section cut (Sect. 3); Col. 3: same as Col. 2 but with the additional condition that the system is still in the BH-star configuration after 10 Gyr; Col. 4 (5): same as Col. 3 but with the additional condition that the binary has a systemic velocity of vsys < 10 km/s (vsys < 1 km/s); Col. 6: all BH-star systems with an age >10 Gyr. To calculate the formation efficiency, we assumed a 100% binary fraction. The errors are estimated as the square root of the counts over the total mass.
