abstract

We confirm the planetary nature of two transiting hot Jupiters discovered by the Kepler spacecraft's K2 extended mission in its Campaign 4, using precise radial velocity measurements from FIES@NOT, HARPS-N@TNG, and the coud\'e spectrograph on the McDonald Observatory 2.7 m telescope. K2-29 b (EPIC 211089792 b) transits a K1V star with a period of $3.2589263\pm0.0000015$ days; its orbit is slightly eccentric ($e=0.084_{-0.023}^{+0.032}$). It has a radius of $R_P=1.000_{-0.067}^{+0.071}$ $R_J$ and a mass of $M_P=0.613_{-0.026}^{+0.027}$ $M_J$. Its host star exhibits significant rotational variability, and we measure a rotation period of $P_{\mathrm{rot}}=10.777 \pm 0.031$ days. K2-30 b (EPIC 210957318 b) transits a G6V star with a period of $4.098503\pm0.000011$ days. It has a radius of $R_P=1.039_{-0.051}^{+0.050}$ $R_J$ and a mass of $M_P=0.579_{-0.027}^{+0.028}$ $M_J$. The star has a low metallicity for a hot Jupiter host, $[\mathrm{Fe}/\mathrm{H}]=-0.15 \pm 0.05$.
