WASP-189 b (also known as HD 133112 b) is an extrasolar planet that has an orbital period around its host star, WASP-189 (HD 133112), of less than three earth days, and is about 322 light-years away in the Libra constellation. It was first discovered in 2018, and was observed in 2020 by CHEOPS.
Discovery and observations
WASP-189 b was first discovered in 2018.{{Cite arXiv|eprint=1809.04897|last1=Anderson|first1=D. R.|last2=Temple|first2=L. Y.|last3=Nielsen|first3=L.

Based on a passage behind its host star (occultation) the planet's brightness could be measured and the temperature was estimated to be {{convert|3200|C|F K|abbr=on}}. Based on a passage in front of its host star (transit) the radius is 1.6 times the radius of Jupiter.{{cite news |author=University of Bern |author-link=University of Bern |title=First study with CHEOPS data describes one of the most extreme planets in the universe |url=https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2020-09/uob-fsw092520.php |date=28 September 2020 |work=EurekAlert! |accessdate=28 September 2020 }}{{cite web |title=First results from Cheops: ESA's exoplanet observer reveals extreme alien world |url=http://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Cheops/First_results_from_Cheops_ESA_s_exoplanet_observer_reveals_extreme_alien_world |website=esa.int |publisher=Esa |accessdate=28 September 2020}}{{cite journal |author=Lendl, M. |display-authors=et al.|title=The hot dayside and asymmetric transit of WASP-189 b seen by CHEOPS? |url=https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/pdf/forth/aa38677-20.pdf |date=17 September 2020 |journal=Astronomy & Astrophysics |volume=643|pages=A94|doi=10.1051/0004-6361/202038677 |arxiv=2009.13403|bibcode=2020A&A...643A..94L|accessdate=28 September 2020 |doi-access=free }} Its atmosphere contains titanium oxide, and also contains metals such as chromium, magnesium, vanadium and manganese.{{cite journal|arxiv=2111.12732|last1=Prinoth|first1=B.|last2=Hoeijmakers|first2=H.
