From the above, can we affirm that the sun has a 80% a priori probability of being into a binary or multiple system?No, we cannot affirm that the sun has an 80% a priori probability of being part of a binary or multiple star system simply based on the statistic that up to 80% of stars in the Milky Way are in binary or multiple systems.
While it is true that the majority of stars in the galaxy are part of binary or multiple systems, it does not necessarily mean that the sun is also part of such a system. Each star and its planetary system is unique and the conditions and history that led to their formation can differ. Furthermore, the actual percentage of stars in the Milky Way that are in binary or multiple systems is not precisely known and may vary depending on the methods used for observations and estimation.
Therefore, determining whether the sun has a binary or multiple companion requires direct observational evidence or strong theoretical predictions. Currently, there is no conclusive evidence for the presence of a companion star for the sun, and further research and observations will be needed to determine its actual probability of having one.
