However, at the beginning of Chapter 5, all these efforts have been stalled as the nearby Pharos Beacon has been giving off
false signals due to its infestation and its light being replaced with a dark one.

Not exact matches
The high rate of multiplicity combined with the low rate of identified
false - positives indicates that the multiplanet systems contain very few
false - positive
signals due to other systems not gravitationally bound to the target star (Lissauer, J. J., et al., 2012, ApJ 750, 131).
Based on several realistic estimates of this frequency we conclude with very high confidence that this small
signal is
due to a super-Earth-size planet (Kepler - 9d) in a multiple system, rather than a
false positive.
