HD 73256 b


HD 73256 b is a 1.87 MJ hot Jupiter orbiting at 0.037 AU taking 2.55 days to orbit around HD 73256.
Assuming the planet is perfectly grey with no greenhouse or tidal effects, and a Bond albedo of 0.1, the temperature would be about 1300 K. This is close to 51 Pegasi b; between the predicted temperatures of HD 189733 b and HD 209458 b, before they were measured. It is a candidate for "near-infrared characterisation with the VLTI Spectro-Imager".
