We form a sample of nearby single stars. Their masses are estimated on the basis of the mass-luminosity relation. Our aim is to specify a reasonable space limit, i.e. a heliocentric volume, as small as possible, but to contain a sufficient number of stars so that an application of statistical laws becomes possible. Among the quantities calculated by us a special attention is paid to the mean mass of a single star and, also, to the local value of Agekyan's factor.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
