Astronomical unit
The astronomical unit (symbol: au, or AU) is a unit of length defined to be exactly equal to.
See MASCARA-1b and Astronomical unit
Day
A day is the time period of a full rotation of the Earth with respect to the Sun.
HD 201585
HD 201585 is a star located in the equatorial constellation Equuleus. MASCARA-1b and HD 201585 are Equuleus.
Hot Jupiter
Hot Jupiters (sometimes called hot Saturns) are a class of gas giant exoplanets that are inferred to be physically similar to Jupiter but that have very short orbital periods (.

Kelvin
The kelvin, symbol K, is the base unit of measurement for temperature in the International System of Units (SI).
MASCARA
MASCARA (Multi-site All-Sky CAmeRA) is an exoplanet experiment by Leiden University.
Super-Jupiter
A super-Jupiter is a gas giant exoplanet that is more massive than the planet Jupiter.
