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.

High-contrast imaging of 18 compact-object binaries yields no robust tertiary detections and rules out main-sequence tertiaries at projected separations greater than 500 au for Gaia systems and 2000 au for BH LMXBs.
Natal kicks from supernovae are proposed to disrupt Gaia progenitor binaries containing low-mass black holes more frequently than those leading to gravitational-wave mergers, accounting for the observed difference in the 2.5-5 solar mass gap.

The Contribution of Disrupted Dense Star Clusters to Gaia's Compact Object Binaries
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.

Searching for the Third Wheel: High-Contrast Imaging Constraints on Tertiaries to Black Hole and Neutron Star Binaries
High-contrast imaging of 18 compact-object binaries yields no robust tertiary detections and rules out main-sequence tertiaries at projected separations greater than 500 au for Gaia systems and 2000 au for BH LMXBs.
