Abstract
As a result of a radial velocity follow-up of OGLE planetary transit candidates in Carina, we report the discovery of two new transiting planets with very short orbital periods: OGLE-TR-113 with m=1.35+-0.22 M_{Jup}, r=1.08 {+0.07}{-0.05} R_{Jup}, P=1.43 day, and OGLE-TR-132 with m=1.01+-0.31 M_{Jup}, r=1.15 {+0.80}{-0.13} R_{Jup}, P=1.69 day. These detections bring to three the number of known "very hot Jupiters" (Jovian exoplanets like OGLE-TR-56 with periods much smaller than 3 days), indicating that the absence of such planets in radial velocity survey does not reflect an absolute limit.
