Notes.We list the seven oscillations in the order of a single high-amplitude frequency (1), two close frequency pairs (2, 3), three overtone frequencies (4, 5, 6), and a low-amplitude frequency (7) whose amplitude matches the 1σ Gaussian noise of the dataset. For every oscillation, we list initial guesses, resulting best-fit values, and actual values for frequency (f), amplitude (A), and phase (δ). To simulate handling a real dataset, we set our starting frequency values to the peak values measured in frequency space. We set starting amplitudes to “reasonable guesses” based on the photometry, and we choose the random phase value 3.0 for all oscillations.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
