摘要: We have measured the alignment between orbit of HATS-3b (a recently discovered, slightly inflated Hot Jupiter) and spin-axis its host star. Data were obtained using CYCLOPS2 optical-fiber bundle simultaneous calibration system feeding UCLES spectrograph on Anglo-Australian Telescope. The sky-projected spin-orbit angle $\lambda = 3\pm25^{\circ}$ was determined from spectroscopic measurements Rossiter-McLaughlin effect. This is first exoplanet discovered through HATSouth transit survey to measured. Our results indicate that orbital plane consistent with being aligned spin axis low obliquity HATS-3 system, which has a relatively hot mid F-type star, agrees general trend observed for Jupiter stars effective temperatures $>6250$K randomly distributed angles.
