Occultation timing variations considering the same simulations of Fig. 3, i.e., a K2-265 b with e = 0.15, a synchronous rotation rate, and a viscosity of η = 10²² Pa s. The panel on the left shows the contribution of orbital decay and tidally induced apsidal precession to the OTVs, while the panel on the right shows the contribution of apsidal precession induced by three effects to the OTVs (i.e., for the latter, the effects of GR, tides, and rotation were considered). The synthetic OTV curves were generated by considering Eqs. (5) and (8) given in Sect. 4 of Patra et al. (2017), corresponding to P17 in the labels of the figure.
