Good detection rates vs. criterion C defined in Dumusque et al. (2017), see Eq. (2) for a definition, for all planet masses and all spectral types (upper panel) for protocol A (solid line) and protocol B (dashed line). The vertical line indicates the 7.5 level from Dumusque et al. (2017). The middle panel shows the same curves for F9 stars (yellow) and K4 stars (blue). The lower panel shows the probability (computed as the number of false positives in that bin divided by the total number of false positives) of false positives vs. , a value of C estimated from the fitted mass for time series that have no planet (in contrast to the two upper panels) and that created a false positive, for protocol A (solid line) and protocol B (dashed line).
