According to a research, low-mass stars are born in pairs, including the Sun
An article published in the journal “Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society” describes a study on the diffusion of binary systems composed of low-mass stars. The astronomers Sarah Sadavoy of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory and Steven Stahler of the University of Berkeley studied very young stars in the molecular cloud of the constellation of Perseus concluding that that kind of stars is always born in pairs, including the Sun.
