Disrupted dense star clusters release ~300,000 white dwarf, 150,000 black hole, and 1,000 neutron star binaries into the Milky Way, but Gaia DR3/DR4 detect only a handful of white dwarf systems with none for the others.

Simulations overpredict hot subdwarf and RR Lyrae binaries with Gaia astrometric solutions but match red clump stars with high mass functions as potential black hole impostors, implying fewer au-scale RR Lyrae binaries than expected.

Testing models for fully and partially stripped low-mass stars with Gaia: Implications for hot subdwarfs, binary RR Lyrae, and black hole impostors
Simulations overpredict hot subdwarf and RR Lyrae binaries with Gaia astrometric solutions but match red clump stars with high mass functions as potential black hole impostors, implying fewer au-scale RR Lyrae binaries than expected.
