HD 73256 b is an 1.87 MJ 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 1300 K. This is close to 51 Pegasi b; between the predicted temperatures of HD 189733 b and HD 209458 b (1180-1392K) before they were measured. It is a candidate for near-infrared characterisation with the VLTI Spectro-Imager.
