Abstract

We report the discovery and parametrisation of WASP-180Ab, a hot Jupiter confirmed by the detection of its Doppler shadow and by measuring its mass using radial velocities. We find the 0.8 $\pm$ 0.1 MJup, 1.29 RJup planet to be in a misaligned, retrograde orbit around an F7 star with T eff = 6500K and a moderate rotation speed of vsini = 21 km s - 1. The host star is the primary of a V = 10.7 binary, where a secondary separated by 5'' contributes 30% of the light. WASP-180Ab therefore adds to a small sample of transiting hot Jupiters known in binary systems. A 4.6-day modulation seen in the WASP data is likely to be the rotational modulation of the companion star, WASP-180B.
