HAT-P-18b orbits the V=12.759 K2 dwarf star GSC 2594-00646, with a period P=5.508023±0.000006 days, transit epoch Tc=2454715.02174±0.00020(BJD), and transit duration 0.1131±0.0009 days. The host star has a mass of 0.77±0.03M, radius of 0.75±0.04R, effective temperature 4803±80K, and metallicity [Fe/H]=+0.10±0.08. The planetary companion has a mass of 0.197±0.013MJ and radius of 0.995±0.052RJ, yielding a mean density of 0.25±0.04g/cm3. HAT-P-19b orbits the V=12.901 K1 dwarf star GSC 2283-00589, with a period P=4.008778±0.000006 days, transit epoch Tc=2455091.53417±0.00034(BJD), and transit duration 0.1182±0.0014 days. The host star has a mass of 0.84±0.04M, radius of 0.82±0.05R, effective temperature 4990±130K, and metallicity [Fe/H]=+0.23±0.08. The planetary companion has a mass of 0.292±0.018MJ and radius of 1.132±0.072RJ, yielding a mean density of 0.25±0.04g/cm3. The radial velocity residuals for HAT-P-19 exhibit a linear trend in time, which indicates the presence of a third body in the system. Comparing these observations with theoretical models, we find that HAT-P-18b and HAT-P-19b are each consistent with a hydrogen-helium-dominated gas giant planet with negligible core mass. HAT-P-18b and HAT-P-19b join HAT-P-12b and WASP-21b in an emerging group of low-density Saturn-mass planets, with negligible inferred core masses. However, unlike HAT-P-12b and WASP-21b, both HAT-P-18b and HAT-P-19b orbit stars with super-solar metallicity. Description: HAT-P-18 was observed, as part of HATNet project, during 2007 Mar-Jun (I filter) and with KeplerCam on 2008 Apr 25 (Sloan i filter) and 2009 May 10 (Sloan g filter). HAT-P-19 was observed, as part of HATNet project, during 2007 Sep-2008 Feb (R filter) and with KeplerCam (Sloan i filter) in 2009 Oct 6, 30, 2009 Nov 27 and 2009 Dec 1. We made use of three different facilities to conduct spectroscopic observations, including the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) Digital Speedometer (DS; 2007 Sep-2008 Mar for HAT-P-18 and 2008 Dec-2009 Jan for HAT-P-19), and, for HAT-P-19, the Tillinghast Reflector Echelle Spectrograph (TRES; 2009 Sep 4), both on the 1.5m Tillinghast Reflector at the Whipple Observatory on Mount Hopkins, Arizona, and the FIbre-fed Echelle Spectrograph (FIES; 2009 Jan-2009 Oct) on the 2.5m Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) at La Palma, Spain. High-resolution spectra were obtained for HAT-P-18 with Keck/HIRES during 2007 Oct-2010 Mar and for HAT-P-19, during 2009 Oct-2010 Feb. HAT-P-19 was also observed with Subaru/HDS on 2009 Aug 8 and 10.

Note (2): The zero point of these velocities is arbitrary. An overall offset γrel fitted to these velocities in Section 3.3 has not been subtracted. Note that for the iodine-free template exposures we do not measure the RV, but do measure the BS and S index. Such template exposures can be distinguished by the missing RV value. Note (3): Internal errors excluding the component of the velocity jitter considered in Section 3.3. Note (4): Relative chromospheric activity index, not calibrated to the scale of Vaughan et al. (1978PASP...90..267V 1978PASP...90..267V). Note that the values for the Keck and Subaru observations have independently been scaled to have a mean of 1.0. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Byte-by-byte Description of file: table[67].dat -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bytes Format Units Label Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2- 12 F11.5 d BJD Baryocentric Julian Date (BJD-2400000) 14- 21 F8.5 mag mag Processed magnitude in Filter (1) 23- 29 F7.5 mag e_mag The 1σ error in mag 31- 38 F8.5 mag Rmag Raw magnitude in Filter (2) 40 A1 --- Filt [gi] KeplerCam filter used in the observation (only i for HAT-P-19) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note (1): The out-of-transit level has been subtracted.
