Outcome of the frequency analysis for the CoRoT light curve of HD 46769. The main panel shows the Scargle periodogram over [0,2.5]  d^-1 (full line) and the version after prewhitening with f = 0.0516  d^-1 and seven of its harmonics as listed in Table 1 (dotted line). The left inset shows the Θ  statistic and the right inset shows the Scargle periodogram over [0,6]  d^-1. No significant power occurs at frequencies above 0.6 d^-1, unless they are of instrumental origin (such as the peak near 2 d^-1).
