WTS-2 b: a hot Jupiter orbiting near its tidal destruction radius around a K dwarf

We report the discovery of WTS-2 b, an unusually close-in 1.02-d hot Jupiter (MP = 1.12MJ, RP = 1.30RJ) orbiting a K2V star, which has a possible gravitationally bound M-dwarf companion at 0.6 arcsec separation contributing ∼20 per cent of the total flux in the observed J-band light curve. The plane...
