The Epoch of Giant Planet Migration Planet Search Program. II. A Young Hot Jupiter Candidate around the AB Dor Member HS Psc

We report the discovery of a hot Jupiter candidate orbiting HS Psc, a K7 (approximate to 0.7 M-circle dot) member of the approximate to 130 Myr AB Doradus moving group. Using radial velocities over 4 yr from the Habitable-zone Planet Finder spectrograph at the Hobby-Eberly Telescope, we find a periodic signal of P-b= 3.986(-0.003)(+0.044) days. A joint Keplerian and Gaussian process stellar activity model fit to the radial velocities yields a minimum mass of m(p) sin i =1.5(-0.4)(+0.6) M-Jup. The stellar rotation period is well constrained by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite light curve (P-rot = 1.086 +/- 0.003 days) and is not an integer harmonic nor alias of the orbital period, supporting the planetary nature of the observed periodicity. HS Psc b joins a small population of young, close-in giant planet candidates with robust age and mass constraints and demonstrates that giant planets can either migrate to their close-in orbital separations by 130 Myr or form in situ. Given its membership in a young moving group, HS Psc represents an excellent target for follow-up observations to characterize this young hot Jupiter further, refine its orbital properties, and search for additional planets in the system.
