Number of stars from the calibrator candidate sample belonging to each defined stellar category.

Category f(Pmax) [d−1] Pmax [ppm] Number of stars Sample percentage
Transit events Any Any 212 10.95%
Pulsating stars >1 ≥ 50 33 1.70%
High-amplitude rotating stars ≤ 1 ≥ 100 801 41.35%
Low-amplitude rotating stars ≤ 1 ≥ 50 and <100 282 14.56%
Low variability any <50 609 31.44%

Notes. Stars with mixed features are arbitrarily assigned to one category only. The distinction between the low-amplitude rotating stars and stars without variability is given as a first approximation by arbitrarily setting a maximum allowed LSP power amplitude peak of 50 ppm for stars to be considered non-variable.
