The O − C diagrams of three binary systems. The O − C values of these targets are calculated using the linear ephemeris listed in Equations (1)–(3). The red dashed lines indicate the quadratic fit, and open cycles stand for the observed data. The final fitting residuals are plotted in the bottom panel.
