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 1300K. This is close to
51 Pegasi b ; between the predicted temperatures ofHD 189733 b andHD 209458 b (1180-1392K), before they were measured. It is a candidate for "near-infrared characterisation.... with the VLTI Spectro-Imager".
