derived from comparison with external datasets. So external datasets derived from comparison with external datasets. So external datasets values may not be error free and RAVE errors are indeed smaller. values may not be error free and RAVE errors are indeed smaller. If If ∆ ∆ RV > 5 km/s this is likely due to binarity (single lined spectroscopic RV > 5 km/s this is likely due to binarity (single lined spectroscopic binary). This happens in 6% of the cases.
