Posterior probability distributions for the WASP-18 b orbital solution derived from MCMC sampling. Dashed vertical lines in the 1D histograms represent the 16th, 50th, and 84th percentiles. The tight constraint on ﹩\dot{\omega }﹩ and its consistency with previous literature confirms the stability of the apsidal signal over our 15 yr observational baseline.
