[en] planetary systems ; stars: individual: OGLE-TR-211
[en] We present results of the photometric campaign for planetary and low-luminosity object transits conducted by the OGLE survey in the 2005 season (Campaign #5). About twenty of the most promising candidates discovered in these data were subsequently verified spectroscopically with the VLT/FLAMES spectrograph. One of the candidates, OGLE-TR-211, reveals clear changes of radial velocity with a small amplitude of 82 m/s, varying in phase with photometric transit ephemeris. Further analysis confirms the planetary nature of this system. Follow-up precise photometry of OGLE-TR-211 with VLT/FORS, together with radial velocity spectroscopy, supplemented with high-resolution, high S/N VLT/UVES spectra allowed us to derive parameters of the planet and host star. OGLE-TR-211b is a hot Jupiter orbiting an F7-8 spectral type dwarf star with a period of 3.68 days. The mass of the planet is equal to 1.03±0.20 M_Jup, while its radius 1.36[SUP]+0.18[/SUP][SUB]-0.09[/SUB] R_Jup. The radius is about 20% larger than the typical radius of hot Jupiters of similar mass. OGLE-TR-211b is, then, another example of inflated hot Jupiters - a small group of seven exoplanets with large radii and unusually low densities - objects that are a challenge to the current models of exoplanets. Based on observations made with the FORS1 camera and the FLAMES/UVES spectrograph at the VLT, ESO, Chile (program 07.C-0706, 076.C-0122, and 177.C-0666) and 1.3-m Warsaw Telescope at Las Campanas Observatory, Chile.
