“…With previously described approach we Table 3: Parameters of the 3 rd body orbit from O − C diagram analysis of AD And and comparison with previous studies, P -orbital period of eclipsing pair, T 0 -initial minimum, Q -quadratic term, P 3 -orbital period of the 3 rd body, t 03 -pericenter passage, a sin i 3 -projected semi-major axis of the orbit, e 3 -eccentricity, ω 3 -the longitude of the periastron, f (M 3 ) -the mass function, χ 2 -sum of squares of the best fit, χ 2 /n -reduced sum of squares (n -number of data points), errors are given in parenthesis. (2009), (2) - Liakos et al (2012) can find the best global solution, but its statistical significance strongly depends on number of steps in MCMC simulation, number of generations and size of population used in genetic algorithms. The discussion about selection of proper values is given in Gajdoš & Parimucha (2018).…”
