GJ 357 b (TOI-562.01) is a transiting, hot, Earth-sized planet (Teq=525±11K) with a radius of Rb=1.217±0.084R and an orbital period of Pb=3.93d. Precise stellar radial velocities from CARMENES and PFS, as well as archival data from HIRES, UVES, and HARPS also display a 3.93-day periodicity, confirming the existence of the planet and leading to a planetary mass of Mb=1.84±0.31M. In addition to the radial velocity signal for GJ 357 b, more periodicities are present in the data indicating the presence of two more planets in the system: GJ 357 c, with a minimum mass of Mc=3.40±0.46M in a 9.12d orbit, and GJ 357 d, with a minimum mass of Md=6.1±1.0M in a 55.7d orbit inside the habitable zone. The host is relatively inactive and exhibits a photometric rotation period of Prot=78±2d. GJ 357 b is to date the second closest transiting planet to the Sun, making it a prime target for further investigations such as transmission spectroscopy. Therefore, GJ 357 b represents one of the best terrestrial planets suitable for atmospheric characterization with the upcoming JWST and ground-based ELTs.
