Three Short Period Jupiters from TESS. HIP 65Ab, TOI-157b and TOI-169b

We report the confirmation and mass determination of three hot Jupiters discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission: HIP 65Ab (TOI-129, TIC-201248411) is an ultra-short-period Jupiter orbiting a bright (V = 11.1 mag) K4-dwarf every 0.98 days. It is a massive 3.213 ± 0.078 M_J planet in a grazing transit configuration with impact parameter b = 1.17^(+0.10)_(-0.08). As a result the radius is poorly constrained, 2.03^(+0.61)_(-0.49) R_J. We perform a full phase-curve analysis of the TESS data and detect both illumination- and ellipsoidal variations as well as Doppler boosting. HIP 65A is part of a binary stellar system, with HIP 65B separated by 269 AU (3.95 arcsec on sky). TOI-157b (TIC 140691463) is a typical hot Jupiter with a mass 1.18 ± 0.13 M_J and radius 1.29 ± 0.02 R_J. It has a period of 2.08 days, which corresponds to a separation of just 0.03 AU. This makes TOI-157 an interesting system, as the host star is an evolved G9 sub-giant star (V = 12.7). TOI-169b (TIC 183120439) is a bloated Jupiter orbiting a V = 12.4 G-type star. It has a mass of 0.79 ± 0.06 M_J and radius 1.09^(+0.08)_(-0.05) R_J. Despite having the longest orbital period (P = 2.26 days) of the three planets, TOI-169b receives the most irradiation and is situated on the edge of the Neptune desert. All three host stars are metal rich with Fe/H ranging from 0.18 - 0.24.
