✦ Synopsis

Stars usually form as members of binary or multiple star systems, and it is likely that the Sun was no exception. The mass and position of possible past companions of the Sun is determined by considering the orbital stability of the Solar System. This is achieved by considering the stability of critical three-body subsets comprising the sun-planetcompanion star which must be stable if the Solar System is to remain stable as a whole.
