| Abstract: | The results of a kinematical population classification of 497 Hipparcos orbital binaries are discussed. Less than 10% of the
stars from the sample belong to the thick disk. Only seven stars have halo kinematics. There are no direct dynamical mass
determinations for extreme halo stars. Some suggestions, concerning Population II visual binaries for which ground-based astrometric
observations in combination with GAIA data will be useful in the future for the better determination of orbits for long period
Population II binaries, are offered.
