Abstract (from CDS):

In the ongoing HATNet survey we have detected a giant planet, with radius 1.33±0.06 RJup and mass 1.06±0.12 MJup, transiting the bright (V=10.5) star GSC 03239-00992. The planet is in a circular orbit with period 3.852985±0.000005 days and midtransit epoch 2,454,035.67575±0.00028 (HJD). The parent star is a late F star with mass 1.29±0.06 M☉, radius 1.46±0.06 R☉, Teff∼6570±80 K, [Fe/H]=-0.13±0.08, and age ∼2.3+0.5–0.7Gyr. With this radius and mass, HAT-P-6b has somewhat larger radius than theoretically expected. We describe the observations and their analysis to determine physical properties of the HAT-P-6 system, and briefly discuss some implications of this finding.
