TOI-7475 spectroscopic follow up - detection of a massive hot Jupiter on an eccentric orbit

We present the first spectroscopic follow-up for TOI-7475, and report the detection of a planetary-mass companion. Transits with a period of 3.25 days were observed by TESS. The dips in brightness are 0.006 mag and last approximately 4.5 hours. The host star is a spectral type F5 with a mass of approximately 1.48 M$_{\odot}$. We collected 24 high resolution echelle spectra using the PST1 telescope. Analysis of the TESS photometric data and our radial velocities was performed using the Wilson-Devinney method. We obtained a planetary mass of the companion of 12.0$\pm$1.0 M$_{\mathrm{jup}}$. The small semi-major axis and short orbital period classify the planet as a Hot Jupiter. Its orbit is elliptical with an eccentricity of 0.16. The ellipticity is evident in the spectroscopic data and could indicates the young age of the system.
